How do we know that life is really happening? How do we know that we are interacting with real people i.e. I may get replies from this but it does not prove i'm real as my brain could be making up you and your answers, friend asked me and seemed interesting what do you think?

The existence of an external world is based on inductive inference. Repeated experience makes us infer that the thing repeatedly occurring actually exists external to our own perception of it. It is impossible to prove with certainty any inductive inference. The best you can have is probability.

I didn't grow up in a church. I'm sure God exists because my life fell apart and then I heard His message: I must be born again, I can be adopted into God's family after everyone else that was in my life abandoned me, Jesus Christ understands pain, sorrow, and rejection so He understands what I was experiencing, I made a lot of mistakes but God will accept my faith as righteousness, I met Him when I had nothing nor anyone but my mother and brother and He promised to give me an abundant life and He has! He made sense of my losses and He has turned my life around. It's been totally incredible! He is my reason for waking up each day, He's my happiness, joy, and peace, I got to travel the world while serving our country and now I'm in college and I have a life! I was married before I knew Him, and my ex dumped me! But God made me His princess. There just is no doubt. It's my life that testifies to Him and His goodness.

stop thinking and let it all happen...or your brain will hurt and you'll go mad LOL
im having a lazy day =]
well its only as real as you let it seem... i mean a hallucination is very real to the person who is experiencing it... same goes for a nightmare... they know its not real but to them it is...
so we cant be sure and sometimes we have to be satisified with little answers that do not solve the problem =]
happy pondering =]

If it feels real, then it is real. Even if it's not real, if to you it's real, that makes it real. I mean it doesn't matter if it's not real. It was real to you.
