My Thought on Positive Aesthetics

I agree with what Carlson says about the idea of positive aesthetics with that there is no real way to judge objects in nature. How can one thing which is sublime such as a great mountain landscape have the same beauty as the pile of dung that sits on the sidewalk? To me somethings are just more beautiful than others and that is what separates humans from the other animals, it is the basic fact that we can judge on what is beautiful and what is not. This also sparks another argument in difference of opinion which creates a positive effect on both sides of argument on proving why certain things in nature have more beauty than other things.
