I'm often asked to give empirical evidence for my beliefs as if empirical evidence is the only kind of evidence that can give you knowledge. So I want to ask the empiricists out there a few questions:

How do you know what you are thinking or feeling?
How do you know that you exist?
How do you know that your senses are giving you true information about the world?
How do you know that past experience can tell you anything about what to expect in the future?
How do you know that anything really causes anything else?
How do you know that two statements that contradict each other can't both be true at the same time and in the same sense?
How do you know that in any case of two straight lines intersecting each other that the opposite angles will always be equal?

Do you have all your recipes scanned from your book or do you actually type them all out and saved them in your hard drive/ cd/ diskette?

I truly admire you people here for the tactfulness and accuracy in providing all those 'secret' ingredients in such a jiffy (I mean, seriously, some appears to post them in record timing and it got me thinking for a moment)...

As for me, I'm just being pretty much of an observer and learning a few stuff besides posting my questions on Oompa Loompas and Chocolates... :-)

Cheers...

I am 18 yrs old and a college freshmen. I have a hopeless feeling like I am going to end up alone. I don't have much confidence here at school. It has nothing to do with looks, i believe i am attractive enough, but i feel like i am behind and its too late to catch up. My past dating experience has been very pitiful. I have never been involved in a serious relationship and have never been involved sexually with anyone. I got stuck up on one girl and she ended up braking my heart. I feel like me being a virgin in college has killed my confidence all together. I know its stupid to think like i'm the only one, but i cant shake it from my head. I'm already stuck in a group of friends that consists of hardly any single girls, just like home. Along with depressed moods about my social life, and homesickness, sometimes I feel horrible. I dont want to be a sad, lonely man 20 years from now. I cant see the future getting brighter, pleas give me some assurance or advice. Thank You.
