Because of my knowledge of my own existence, confirms that I really know something. So based on that truth, I know that what I really know is true.

well what i know are things that i experience directly. and experienceing them directly is how i know that i know them. for example, right now i know that i am having the experience of sitting at a computer typing. and i know this because i am experiencing it directly. i don't know whether the computer really exists, because i don't experience the computer directly. (all my experiences of the computer come to me through my senses and so are indirect experiences.) but i do know that i am having a certain experience, and it would not be possible for me to be wrong about this. So what we know, we know because we experience it directly. things that we think we know but do not experience directly (like the reality of the computer) we do not really "know." they are more like beliefs and assumptions.

Hi, Greed,
You can almost never know.... In 1000 years time, something we all take as fact may be proven completely false....
>>>>
Once you realize, how little you know you're on your way to realizing more, but it sounds like you're denying meaningful truth..

Thanks, for the question!;)
My regards!

nothing is real and I know nothing therefore I know all of reality and none of it. The duality that exists in humanity is both our greatest strenghth and weakness.
is it better to have loved and lost or never to have loved at all? Reality is that we have done both and neither . In the multitude of universal possibilites,all and nothing have happened,will happen and wont happen. Comprende?

Go read Descartes, you'll get so irritated with this line of questioning, you'll believe in existence just to simplify things.

If what I know, is not really what I know, I don’t thing I could know it, so what does it matter!
