    no the hole "i think their for i am" dose not prove any thing in a dream u think yet u don't exist also nothing will ever be explained it will just be assumed that were right because most of the time this happens the real question is y do we think we exist how come we have conscience with out knowing these things we can not prove that we exist

    Why do you ask? I'm sorry, is anyone asking? Wait, forget this; nothing exists and you aren't reading this. C'mon! Why prove the obvious. If it is false, it doesn't matter, but if you are asking, you have answered your own question, Grasshopper. But,consider this verse of Scripture -

    Hebrews 2:10-11 "In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything EXISTS, should make the author of their salvation (Jesus) perfect through suffering. Both the one who makes men holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers.

    I prefer to say "I -Stink- therefore I am." When I "think" I am left to myself as my own witness of existence. But when someone says "Damn! You really smell horrible." I feel better because I know I'm alive due to the outside source being my witness of existance.

    Now for a quetion to help awnser yours

    "Can you prove that we don't exist?"

    Maybe you should watch "Vanilla Sky" of course I liked it more when it was called "Total Recall"

    Anyways,

    have a nice existence.

    yes. if something exists, then something has to not exist too. if we don't, there is something that does. we are apart of everything there ever was and will be. so, we exist, somewhere in sometime, in some aspect or another

  • Yes. Rent the movie "Dark Star", and pay particular attention to the discussion regarding "phenomenology".

    Oh, my friend, you are little outdated with that question, especially after Descartes and Kant. I. from Macedonia.
