Maybe everything you've ever experienced is actually a virtual simulation from a futuristic machine that erases your memory and sends neurons through your brain that make you think you're living in the 21st century.

When you turn around you can no longer see anything outside of your front and peripheral vision. How do you know that the world actually exists when you turn around? How do you know that the world doesn't simply exists where you can see it? A mirror, a camera, a friend telling you, etc. all have to exists in front of you for you to see what they are showing. As in, a mirror could show you what you Rating: 5

Right now I'm not dreaming or on any drugs and as far as I know I'm not in any life simulation. My mind is clear and as concious as it can get at this point.

I know that anything is possible. Scientifically though, proving the existance of things which I cannot see but know are there through other senses is the most possible.

who knows though, you could be dreaming. any second now you could wake up and find out that your a dinosaur from a million years ago, or you could wake up as a gorrilla on the other side of the planet, and just say "wow, that was a fucked up dream".
or you could open your eyes right now, and realize that you ARE the sweaty fat guy coming down off of an intense salvia tripp where you lived someones life. the possibilities are endless.

Basic science says otherwise.

Saying "but, you could be dreaming it all" is too simple and boring to even consider. Of course it could very well be true, but there is no reason to think that it is.

Simple question with many possibilities,

"How do you know the world exists behind you?"

When you turn around you can no longer see anything outside of your front and peripheral vision. How do you know that the world actually exists when you turn around? How do you know that the world doesn't simply exists where you can see it?

A mirror, a camera, a friend telling you, etc. all have to exists in front of you for you to see what they are showing. As in, a mirror could show you what you think should be there however it really does not exists at that moment.

Where this is going is the thought that existance is simply a personal thing. The universe was created for you to enjoy it. Whatever you cannot see presently simply does not exist.

So, the question stands, how can 'you' prove that the world exists behind you?

Easy. Use a camera and take a picture of me straight on from above. Since while looking at the developed picture, you know that what you were looking at with your own eyes in front of you was real, the picture of you from the top (while you were looking forward) proves there's a whole world around you.

but it still might not be real, all you people that i am having this debate with are mot likely just in my imagination. i am going to wake up soon, and what does not having woken up before have anything to do with this? Rev. Michael T, your mind is one sided and your a retard. christ can lick my balls while i smoke a big fat joint.

[Climbing High]

ohhhh yea

[ermitonto]

christ can lick my balls while i smoke a big fat joint.

I hope you don't mind if I use this as a book title someday.

How can it not be real?
