So, the Pope's a Catholic...
It was almost enough to make me want to convert. And then His Holiness has to ruin it by regurgitating eco-propaganda about the rain forests.

If a bear falls silently in the rain forest, does anybody hear?
If the bear falls "silently", then by definition no-one can "hear" him fall. If he falls dead and alone, he makes air waves of x frequency. If they hit the eardrum of a sentient being, his fall is heard. Sound qua the relevant air waves exists objectively and can be measured. Sound qua the experience of air waves hitting an auditory nerve is a 'subjective experience'.
And that applies to the bear's farts as well.
Unless of course the bear is a Papa Bear.
In which case he probably gets feisty when poachers come along and threaten his cubs.
... and if anyone claims that they do, would it be a bear faced lie?
