Prove to me you exist.

SEN D-F · #1 2004-02-08, 03:41

A lot of people who don't believe in God request proof of his existance from those who do believe. Obviously nothing that would be accepted as proof by a non-believer can be presented.

So, I request that some non-believer proove that they exist. Proove that I am not in a dream, and this is not all fake. Or how do you know Im not a figment of your imagination? Maybe this is all fake and you are the only thing real about this world. Maybe not.

Proove that you exist.

I don't.

SEN D-F · #3 2004-02-08, 03:59

Prove it. Prove you're a hallucination in my mind.

I guess believers and non-believers are even then. Neither can prove existence, of a God or themselves. This has certainly solved a lot...

Here's a fun thing to do, create a small world in your mind. Picture people running around, living out their lives. They exist in your mind. Hey look, you are now God. Do what you want with your little universe.

Who's to say we aren't just someone's dream, or however you want to interpret it.

As I don't exist, providing proof of my non- existance may prove to be just a little hard.

This is not obvious at all. There are plenty of things that I would accept as proof of a deity's existence; verified miracles, a significant personal experience, etc.

The word is "prove".

I can send you pictures of myself, I can give you a history of myself, testimony from people who know me, postings I've made on the internet, etc. None of these are "proof" (I could have forged the pictures, made up a history, etc.), but with enough of this evidence it becomes far more likely that I am a real person than that I'm somebody else perpetrating a hoax.

Of course, all gods have going for them are inaccurate histories and high dubious testimony thousands of years old.

good ol' cogito.

methinks you just want an argument of some sort, SEN D-F.

I was thinking about that quote from the second I saw this thread. Interesting.

Damn you and you're beating me to it!
