Re: What is there? (Beginners thread)


So if you didn't exist, everything else in reality would not exist as your mind could not construct it?

Re: What is there? (Beginners thread)


What kinds of 'stuff' are there in the universe, are there only physical things, or is reality made up of both mental and physical things, or is there only mental properties to reality?

Re: London terror attack

I can't accept this as a terrorist attack, the location is political, but he just looks like a lone looney.


That is something I can believe more that it is just a lone looney. Someone hoping for attention or misguided.
