    Also decarte? Never heard of him.

    If nothing exists, doesn't that make it something which also says that nothing CAN'T exist? This is why I don't believe in the atheistic view of the other life. Whatever it is, it's not nothing.

  • Gorgias has one quote that sums the fundamental of communication

    “Nothing exists; even if something exists, nothing can be known about it; and even if something can be known about it, knowledge about it can't be communicated to others.”

    ​This Phrase, i can break it down into my own view, is simply cool and horrendous in it of itself. A man that can't tell the foreknowledge about something. In my view, it means that "All is futile, to educate a man." Simply because in it of itself, while something means something to you, "nothing" is what it means to others.

    Any thoughts on your own view? i know that it doesn't mean that, but i find it peculiar that it hit me so hard on such a genuine level.
