Everything happens inside our heads if you really think about it. Our senses may tell us it's outside, but all the processing and understanding of the thing happens in the pinkish grey custard in your skull. Mod Maz

Do you then believe in the theory that either:

A) We are simply a brain in a jar somewhere, what we know doesn't exist we simply experience out because we think we do.

B) We do exist, but only you exist. Everyone and everything else is simply a figment of your imagination to keep you from being bored. MrBrokenBow - Former Leader and Founder of

Or....

c) We perceive correctly what we sense and our senses tell us what is, therefore we perceive what is.

What if we're all telepathic beings and what we think is our bodies is what we project to other people what our bodies supposedly look and feel like?

Even more head hurtingly... we all live in the past, as it takes time for the signal to get from your senses to your brain... and they travel at different speeds too. So... when we say "now" we actually mean about 80ns ago. Mod Maz

That does make sense lol, there's a delay between something happening, and us being able to process it when we perceive it. It's also crazy how we perceive colors differently, for example what I see as blue you see a little differently, but it's still called blue because that's how we both learned it.
