      Does this thread exist?

      If you think it does, prove it.
      You are dreaming right now.

      This thread does not exist. I closed my eyes, forgot about it, and in my mind there was never, and never shall be, this thread.

      I think he is going to have us answer this with logical, valid points, and then turn this into a religious thing where he says: If thats how you prove something exists, why can those things not be used to prove God yet you still think he exists.

      In your mind, no. Outside of your mind, though, it exists.

      Human senses can be misleading. They exist only for survival purposes. However they're not required to be truthful.
      Things are not as they seem

      For all practical purposes in my life, this thread exists.

      I haven't read anything in here, but I assume that people have already had fun toying with the definition of thread.

      Well, for this thread to exist you would have to say that "there is a thread called 'does this thread exist?'". And since nothing really is, merely what it seems to be at the point in space-time based on information delivered to your nervous system, I suppose you could say that objectively this thread may not exist, but it subjectively exists for everyone to interpret in various forms. But because anyone can go on the internet and post on this thread, I would say it has to exist objectively, but can only be subjectively interpreted.

      You might as well be asking "What is real?"...I suppose you did this for simplicity, even though it really doesn't simplify anything.

      Mysteryhunter seems to be delving into quantum physics. I wish he would elaborate.

      What thread?
      This was that cult, and the prisoners said it had always existed and always would exist, hidden in distant wastes and dark places all over the world until the time when the great priest Cthulhu, from his dark house in the mighty city of R'lyeh under the waters, should rise and bring the earth again beneath his sway.

      What thread?

      Nothing is self-evident for me.
      Jujutsu is the gentle art. It's the art where a small man is going to prove to you, no matter how strong you are, no matter how mad you get, that you're going to have to accept defeat. That's what jujutsu is.

      The idea of it existed when I read the title in the "Today's Posts" -- however, from my own personal unique point of perspective (consciousness) it did not exist at all until I entered and experienced it.

      And, as Bonsay noted- it will no longer exist once I finish posting and leave. The MEMORY of it will give me the impression of it ever existing at all from then on... until I come back. Which I probably won't do

      Does internet porn exist? I think you all know the answer to that question.
