How do you know if I am real...?


Question


How do you know if I am real...?
or just a figment of your imagination? Answering because you can touch me or hear me is not acceptable since I can percieve hearing and touching the things in my dreams, but that does not make them real.


Answer


quotI think therefore I amquot....Naaahhhh....I am therefore I am!!!brbrBut I digress. As you state, your question does not directly apply to my existence, rather to yours.brSoooo...brHow am I to know if you exist? My inner skeptic says that I do not know as you do really exist...only that some sort of sentient being has posited a question here in this forum.brOnly you can truly arrive at an answer to the question of your own reality...Good Luck with that brbrquotA man said to the Universe quotSir, I exist...quot The Universe replied quotThat may be, but what obligation does that involve for me.quot Stephen Crane....forgive some almost certain error on my part in quoting that, as I am doing so from some very dusty memory and am sure that I didnt get it verbatim, only the gist of it.



How do we expect God to help us if we have taken him out of everything...?


Question


How do we expect God to help us if we have taken him out of everything...?
My question is just that, I saw a question on here about how come hasnt helped us...Im just curious as to how we think God can help us if we dont want him there??


Answer


Yeah, I get it why should he help us were sinners and we try to push him out of our lives. But when it gets tough for us we ask for help.I dont think we deserve it yet hes still there for us.brbr By the way I saw Shanas answer and I thought that was a really good response.
