 Silent Consensus About Reality 

This phrase stopped me dead in my tracks:

...silent consensus about reality.

Perhaps the phrase ""silent consensus about reality"" has a clear meaning in the jargon of some school of thought, but I have never encountered it before and have no idea what it refers to.  I'd like to see this re-written or expanded so that it's comprehensible by the average person (or removed altogether).  Since I have no idea what it means I'm not able to re-write or expand it, and I'm loathe to just delete it since it has survived many other edits and therefore presumably means something to others.  

The phrase was added by Special:Contributions/85.127.205.253 85.127.205.253 at 2009-01-31T03:27:25.  Can that person clarify what they intended to say?  Can anyone else offer an explanation?
