OK, this is random! Is Sartre's existence real to you? Is your existence real to you? only i can judge myself?- Depending on your interpretation of the testaments, this was written long before Sartre, just not so easy to follow.- Could there be a collective "I"? Dont explain "I", explain the existance of "I".

I see it this way.

The past is only an abstract thought. It is only in your mind because it has already happened. It is intangible. It cannot be 'held' or 'changed'.
The future is also an abstract thought, it hasn't happened yet. It is only in your mind that it exists. It cannot be 'held', either.
The present is an infinitly small amount of fleeting time between the future and the past. Infinitly small - it really doesn't exist at all.
So is life a dream? Is it only in your head?

I submit that it is. Life is. Tao is.

DO NOT explain the words of Descartes and Spinoza. Explain in your own words the subject- "I".

This one is for john d. Anyway, maybe explain this: A circle=infinte; alpha and omega both, are god; god completes the circle by joining first and last; god is the link (or missing link,although we may have just found it); god is the link between beginning and end which becomes infinite. ???? so what about us? Original theories please. Although the word "original" is contradictory, the contradiction within originality could be key?

The answer is 42, as provided by Deep Thought. In computer terms, that is 101010.

It is obvious to me that the question must then be about balance! The universe must be balanced, as in for every "1" there is a "0". Given that we have 3 combinations of 1s and 0s, they must therefore represent the 3 pillars of the universe that must be balanced.

My question: what are those 3 pillars? Mass, space, energy? Good and evil? Religion and Science? Republican and Democrat? Help!!

I rather ask this in the philosophy section couse its more of a romantic thing than religus. I know its God above all else and i agree with that, i red some years ago "Paradise Lost" by Jonh Milton and in it it depics Adam's decition after he saw Eve and the bitten apple, of how he felt confuse and sad, in the book he decides not to betray God but rather to remain with Eve.
I dont think i could ever pass a chance to remain in paradise...but hey thats just me, doe i could understand how much he love Eve.
What do you think? What would you do if you were in his place? A love one for the loss of paradice, or be true to God?

is it abnormal to have such a feeling?can we then still have the chance to change and to rebuild what was broken in a way or another?

Why do we need to work so hard just to have access to food, nice place to sleep, mating and defence? When all these facilities are freely available for lower animals.

Was listening to Queen's "Who wants to love forever" and got me thinking.

Surely, if we spread love then this will live on in our loved ones and a ripple effect will occur; the love we gave to them will be passed on and so on...and therefore we will live forever in the heart's of mankind?

It then striked me that this is similar to the hypothesis proposed by Dawkins that "memes" are radily spread through a population (well slightly a wee bit more complicated) and therfore could it be said that love is the greatest meme?

No, I can't say that I have either. But theN, I don't wonder about much. In fact, although there may be 1,000,000 things in life that a person can think about, I have only ever thought of 4 of them, and 2 of those were by mistake. Math is a funny thing. Ha ha.
