"The historically most central epistemological issue concerning perception is whether and how beliefs about physical objects and about the physical world generally can be justified or warranted on the basis of sensory or perceptual experience"

Incredibly general philosophical question here, but I am interested as to where you all fall in this divide? Realist, Idealist?
My two cents: Not sure it's an issue. If I believe the physical world exists, I continue how I am and if I believe it does not exist I can either retreat into my own mind or pretend it does and continue to live as I do.
Any thoughts?
