wat if everything everyone has ever told us is wrong, wat if trees r really grass and grass are really trees, wat if everyone but a few people who are lying to us, dont know any truth at all, wat if everything, is wrong?????
But what if people tell you two completely contradictory statements, then, logically, one would have to be right!
whatever names we invent for things are whatever names we invent for them. symbols in other words, not the things themselves. unless it is words themselves we are talking about specificly. it is true that everything we experience we do so inside our own heads. this neither proves nor disproves that there is an outside to our heads where events which stimulate this experiencing actualy take place. yet subjectively at least it would appear more probable that there is then that there is not. and why is thins? because for one thing, many experiences can and do get stimulated instintaniously without expectation, leaving little or no opportunity for even parts of our own minds that go usualy go unnoticed by our awairnessess to have constructed them. =^^= .../\...
my parents screwed around with me like that when i was kid. one exaple: started my 1st day of kendergarten thinking horses go moo. i thought cows where horses and vice versa. really its no wonder I turned out so wierd.
meaning isn't exactly the point of existence however. creating and exploring and the kind of world we all have to live in is. and the directions our individual priorities collectively influence it in. =^^= .../\...
Yeh i hav thought that but i also think that things are things whether we like it or not... so for instance a tree isnt a tree coz we say its a tree...its still there whether we label it or not... if u get my drift?! Yes i happen to think things like that a lot...call me paranoid... haha its a all subjective
i walked thru the same park everyday for years, alone, then i walked there with a friend, she said y'know that weird mailbox there and pointed at it, it was very obvious there was a mailbox there but if she didnt say it was there i wouldve never seen it. so i know its only there in my world cuz she told me it was in her world.
