Re: Is Earth called Earth outside this planet?
IF, life exist outside our system, i am sure there are many civs on different levels some more advanced and some less, possibly some with technologies greater than ours but where we have things they didn't think of.

anyways no they probably have our sun named like we do many others like m85 and such, only the close by or easily recognizable ones have more common names.

Earth isn't even called Earth inside this planet.

Only in the minds of those who have learned to call it such, is this planet called Earth.
I am like the space which permeates all objects, and is yet undefiled. I am of the nature of Absolute Consciousness. I can now cognize my Reality to be no other than That.

We call it Earth, obviously. You must have completely ignored or not understood my second sentence.

It's a good point to consider and is also what your entire original post is implying. Knowledge is the mind's organization and adeptship, it's not directly ABOUT anything. We do not learn or discover anything external to our own mental activity. Learning is not learning "about the world" but learning about our mind. Memory expands and we fashion our thinking mechanisms into a believable, realistic fiction which indirectly enables us to more effectively interact with the world.

Systemized knowledge of any sort is simply a metric or measuring system. Time isn't minutes and seconds; minutes and seconds are concepts used to measure or indicate time. I'm referring to time as the velocity of transformation from cause to effect.
