I think therefore I am.

Yup. I'd say you exist as long as you are a brething person with a pulse.

If you think your question about existence is complicated try pondering these additional questions:
(1) Do you exist in this 3 dimensional hologram universe or do you also co exist as a 2 dimensional object?
(2) If you exist in this universe where are your coordinates in the universe at?
(3) what time dimension do you really exist at if you truly exist?

Black holes seem to suggest a peculiarity in our illusion of reality. If you were to be consumed by a black hole your atoms would degenerate within the field of gravity, but would emerge as stored information in a 2 dimensional disk outside the surface of the 3 dimensional world we live in. so in the first case scenario you would exist and not once you enter the event horizon of a black hole.

Because our perceptions is governed by space and time we assume that we are at a determined space at a specific time. Quantum physics seems to suggest that time is irrelevant so if our macro world is like the micro world we are everywhere in the Universe simultaneously and assuming we are at a pre determined coordinate in the universe is a false perception of what reality is.

Every moment of time from the beginning to the end is valid and equally real but our minds are only capable to see it in a linear progression therefore things that were here billions of years ago and billions of year from now are here and just as real as you and I perceive to be. In essence there is no death in the universe because time does not exist as we perceive it to be. Although time can be affected by gravity it has no value in the structure or coordinates in the Universe since it simultaneously exists in harmony with the universe it shares with and yet is independent from the universe as well.

you only exist because there are some people that remember you, we are all one and by thinking we "think" we are seperated and thus must exist somehow or in someplace.

Maybe your whole universe and the people in it is only in your head and you are having a very long and "real" dream. Your in a coma and can't wake up!

well I have often asked a similiar question; do you exist? rather than do i exist? the term of believing that only you exist is called 'solipsism' and i basically suggests that the world is kinda like the truman show and that ppl are merely objects but you are the TRUE soul and that in your life you are the one being put at test! get me??? lol its complicated!

yes, you do exist. but only in the most fundamental sense. you are nothing more than a brain being stimulated with electrodes that are connected to our observational and experimental machines. your progress has been most informative and we have gleaned a wealth of information from our experiments. by creating this world that you think you live in and generating experiences that you deem as real, we have been able to determine that the human brain has no ability to differentiate reality from simulation.

so yes, you exist. and you are alive. and you will be for as long as we are able to obtain relevant information from you.
