As far as your question goes...........

Prove something exists outside you mind..........I debated this once and was left with an understanding that I still haven't completely worked out.........

Like this............I could tell you about something in a far off country that you weren't aware of.........Once you are notified of such it isn't outside your mind......So.......did it exist prior to your being knowing of it? Well the obvious answer is yes.......or you couldn't have been told if it didn't happen................BUT.............You were told.........therefore it exists in your realm.

The Realm is there, but the (sheez, I'm stealing a word from Lainn) but the application or knowing of it was not active until you embraced it with your mental field.

I can't prove something exists outside of you because once you are introduced you are part.

So your question is nul and void! hahaha

so I say egg first!

to make a man feel bad about his quest for knowledge speaks volumes about your's (stick to watching football..... :top:

)

@concrete......contrary to popular belief if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it...it still does make a sound.

when you sleep....are others awake?

when you die... will others still live?

when you have been lost....has someone helped to find you?

would a brain as complex as yours is concrete, actually invent a numbnuts like dumdabears...think about it?

i would think that the fossil record would be excellent proof of existence before concrete.

and the rich (documented) cultural history of the world (art,poems, songs, ect..) seems to indicate that there are more than one of us here.

and if you were the only real entity in the universe....why do you still conjure-up wars and poverty.

doesn't sound like something the concrete i know would do. :flop:

It is such a bizarrely improbable thing that anything so mindbogglingly funny and intelligent as concrete having evolved by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as a final and clinching proof of the non-existence of God! The argument goes: “I refuse to prove that I exist” says God “for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing”. “But” says Man “Concrete is a dead giveaway isn't he? He could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED”. “Oh dear” says God “I hadn't thought of that” and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.

However, if in fact God is concrete, then he will have been talking to himself! So, if one ignores the rather dodgy parts of Descartes cogito and hold to the view that “I think, therefore I am” is sound, then by merely having this conversation with himself is proof that he exists! And - here is the clincher, if he can in fact understand and make sense of what I’ve just written (Including the nonsensicality and contradictions – which no reputable God should be without these days) then he must in fact be God!

this strikes a very raw nerve in me....

and I agree with you dank1 COMPLETELY.

yeah,another american loses their job to someone in India.The steel mill around here that once hosted thousands of jobs were lost to these "other" countries.My fucking government has forgotten who turns the wrench to feed their children here.What do they want? they say go back to school after 10 years of putting up a house and a family and now we have to worry about going back to school and paying into education loans or grants(Government profits there too).This is sickening...glad those people over there have a job that probably doesn't pay them 18.25/hr. like I was making here..And people preach to me to be patriotic.Yeah,right :yell:

Now if I want to send my kid to a university to be a doctor,I can't afford it.But yet those people over there don't have to worry about shoveling out thousands of $$$ to be a doctor,then to top it off,they move over here and make alot of money .

Anything to sink the american economy and the people.
