It seems that our material brains and our discrete languages are capable of modeling both more and less than “reality”. Our imagination of a “perfect circle” is an idealistic simplification. It doesn’t follow that perfect circles exist in some ideal realm, or that our ideas of them are not material. The pronoun “I" doesn’t imply an immortal soul.
