How many of you out there believe the life around is really only a figment, very much like the hollo deck aboard the Enterprise.After all, it has been reported that some of those people who had experienced death reported going to a world of nothingness. This seems to imply to me the real world is a world of nothingness. If that is the case, then perhaps what we see around us is only a figment.

one of the greatest thinkers [philosophers, i do not remember his name aorund the same period of saint augustine] said the same thing when he was trying to push foward his idea of which legal system should be applicable to human beings. i would advise you not to take them serious. remember the case of spelanken explorers, they ate a person and you know how it was justified by philosophers, they should not be arrested because man made law was not applicable to them, they were by law of nature.

You guys (except for the 1st responder) are insane. This is some kind of mental issue. Seriously. If it's all an illusion, why not make the best of it. And if its all gonna end, how about you give all your money, bellongings and such to me. They're not real, right?

What we see is our own perception of what is there. There is no way of actually knowing what things are really like but trying to understand first how you interpret everything around you and second how other people interpret the same things is a good thing to be aware of.

Well, if the world around you is truly an illusion, you can't base your opinions on other people's near-death experiences - after all, those other people aren't there, right? Reality is what YOU make of it.

Reach behind you and switch yourself off then. Also, don't drink or eat, because you really don't need to, you're just nothing in nothingness anyway.

That also gives support to the opinion that people are nothing.
