you guys spend too much time making up conspiracy theories.

Basically, I've been wondering about something. Do we really exist? I mean, I have no proof that anything/anyone/anywhere I see is even real. For all I know, I could be living in a delusion and all of you are made up figments of my imagination, or those of some other concious beings. I only have proof that I am concious, that I can think, because I am pondering over this question. I have no proof this world exists, no proof any of the scientific laws exist. Also, any evidence that everything is real can just be seen as a figment of imagination.

 

 

 

Basically, I'm asking you, "Do our bodies really exist, or are we just random concious lifeforms, wandering through the universe?"

 

 

 

The only solution to this question I can see is death. However, delusion or not, this life is too good to give up willingly.

 

 

 

The fact that you question your sanity in itself, shows that you are not insane. I have often pondered on this question though, and every time I think about it, I become more and more paranoid.

 

 

 

Sorry for not reading through this whole post, I just have better things to do with my life then yet agin ponder the meaning of life and how it came to be.

I've always felt as if I'm the only person who can understand the concept of sarcasm on the internet.

If you really don't believe you exist, run out in the middle of the busiest intersection in your city. And when you get hit by a car, tell me how real that pain is and if it "really exists".

 

 

 

Pain is a feeling that can just as much be imagined as a person.

 

 

 

Oh, ok. So almost everyone on Earth imagines the exact same thing. I see now. :roll:

 

 

 

 

 

As mentioned above, you can only imagine what you have experienced, or what you know is to be, and EVERYONE on Earth knows what pain is, and therefore can imagine it.

 

 

 

Now I'm not saying that we are all crazy, and that we don't really exist, but I'm just saying thats its not impossible. I'm just playing the devils advocate.

What suspends the minds in the universe? Our deep and powerful thoughts are created and processed by the human brain. The brain needs to be in the proper environment to survive and requires constant attention. You can't simply suspend brains into space and expect them to work like they do on Earth.

 

 

 

PS: Exploring your mind can be a lot of fun. I'm interested in experiencing an ego loss sometime in my life, either through meditation or through psychedelics. For more info;

That would make sense though. Similar minded people always gather. If you were to imagine something else you'd be on another planet.

Be careful what you wish for!

I'm only a figment of your imagination, but, you aren't supposed to ask questions like that! :notalk:

I have a definition for you guys

 

 

 

Reality=Time and motion in a single combined act.

 

 

 

What is Time and motion though?

 

 

 

Time and motion are just illusions created by your minds inability to perceive what is really going on. You perceive what you believe you do, yet we all do at the same time, creating time and motion. Yet, we can't prove time and motion exists at all, which creates a paradox in a way. Yet we exist in Reality, which is made up of Time and motion...and if we exist in reality which is real, that still doesn't answer the question, do WE exist.

 

 

 

So, if reality is real, and time and motion are real, are we real? This question is unanswerable unless you knew if what you thought was real. We perceive what we think though, yet the phrase "I think therefore I am" is false if we follow it though this way. Yet, someone(I'm not sure who) proved that if you think, you are.(or IF you think than you exist)

 

 

 

I wonder who came up with all this...

Meh...

Nice bump and incredibly vague and opinionated definition.

Wow, that made me feel good and bad inside.

 

 

 

I'm pretty sure I said something wrong though that entire thing, which...really isn't that big so that would be a big mistake in a small place.

Meh...
