A deep thinking question, for those that like to think.

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?

Simple answer-You cant.

People believe what they want to believe, and disbelieve that they dont.

Exactly.

yea, and like when you close your eyes, how do you know that you are where you were when you closed them... try closing your eyes in a perfectly quiet room, and you can convince yourself that you are anywhere, and that you are anyone.

There are endless possibilites and man can not even begin to ansewer the questions the universe posseses. The only thing you can do; is smoke a joint.

I feel bad for everyone who lives to the south of my current position, because that is the direction which I am facing, and in approxiately twenty seconds I will proceed to turn around therefore nullifying your existence. Sorry guys.

Until then, I have another deep question. How do we know that feces doesn't turn purple when nobody is looking at it?

[lateralus]

And don't call me a smartass, because you can't see me to prove it.

Although I do like the question I see the answer as simple. My answer:

FAITH

Thats what we all have in common but most don't realize.
