I find that some would say, "Why question existence. We're here aren't we so let's not waste time".
I would reply, "So what is the point of us thinking we're living if we don't even have the answers to know if we're in reality or not. What would it matter if we live or die? If you're mind goes void after death, it is impossible to sense anything around you or have the ability to remember or imagine".

I know it's a bit hard to comprehend but if you don't get it the first time reading it, try again. It took me a few times to write it!

existance is just strings i use to make you humans kill each other

I like this a lot. It made me think a lot.

How do I know you exist? If I am "dreaming" this, you are just my mind telling me you exist. You may be reading this knowing you exist but then how do you know I exist and I'm not in your imagination?
Get what I mean?
What is very weird about this is that it's plausible. Nobody (assuming you all do exist) can make someone 100% sure they exist, which sounds crazy I know! Our conclusions are based on what fits our reality.
But what does it matter if our reality isn't real because there is no way to escape that, except, possibly death.
Mindf***?

I think there for i am comes to mind .

You should read through Philosophy's reply on the second page if you haven't already.

Explains this view quite thoroughly and simply.

Yes, I have. I think he's put it into words better than I could but I have looked into this before and it's very interesting. Stephen Hawking also made an hour long documentary based around that and other similar perspectives of life called "The Meaning of Life" which is part of the series "Stephen Hawking's Grand Design". I highly recommend you watch this (below) and if you can, any other programmes he's made.

You know what I think of this type of stuff? I believe that human beings are built to questions things such as this, life, the universe, ect because by questioning things like this, we are driven to try and learn new things, making the human race more advanced over time. This is probably what has made "us" the human race, the dominant species over any animal on the earth. Imm not really sure if the universe is ever comprehend able or if it's just infinite or what. But yeah, you get the point.

Was that a tongue twister... lol..

C0NZ0 wrote what ive been thinking for the past few years is what if the world i live in is only acctualy inhabited by myself and everyone is just my imagination or somthing?

i know it sounds crazy bt i like thinking of stuff loike this..it gives me somthing to do

Haha i thought like that too but now i think that everyone is actually real and its not just me.

After you die, its believed that you have 7 minutes of brain activity left inside you, and in the 7 minutes you experience your entire life over, in a kind of dream... Because Dream Time is stretched. So in this case, what if you're in that 7 minutes . How Do You know if your alive, or just reliving old memories.
