I have the answer.

I didn't bother reading everyone elses answer because frankly, I don't care. lol.

I know that objects "exist", and I'll use this term loosely here, when I am not looking at them, due to the fact that I believe in the existence of a higher power that is omnipotent and omnipresent. (I see you guys have already gotten sensitive about the whole issue, so I'm choosing my words carefully here). I choose to call this entity I believe in God. So I know those objects exist because I believe God can see them even when I cannot.

Now what you mean by exist is an entirely different matter. Question: Why do you think something actually exists just because you physically can view it? For that matter, why does something exist even if you can physically touch it?

Hm...........
