Then were all wasting our time! but until then, i am happy to waste time.

well that would make me wonder the definition of real is, because if the world dodn't exist, what did??

The world exists but not in a way we think .we all live in different times. What you see now on the screen is the time you live in . Difficult to explain. I placed this answer on this site in my time. You are reading it in your time. Time as we know it does not exist ,it was created by man . I did type this but by the time you read this i am probably live in the 2100 year that we call time . but again the time for you is now ! Is time really ticking by? ....every thing we see and do is created by our state of mind created by things much more complexed than what we can imagine. Ok it sound very confusing in short.... i did this 10 minutes ago but that was my time then. I might be long gone doing something else . You are living in that time i typed this. Aah now it makes more sence. Here is a riddle? Can you see yourself standing in the road while driving a car if you decide in ten years time to go stand infront of yourself in the road?

In response to the second answer, the world isn't the universe so everything but we would exist. But the word "world" is pretty vague. I know that my world exists but I'm not sure if yours does. Maybe your a robot. Or maybe we live in parallel universes but our internet is the same. And in response to the first answer, anyone can see themselves doing that but it would be seeing 2 things at once because you see 2 different things. you see yourself in front of you out of your windscreen but you would also be outside of the car looking in at yourself coming toward you in your car. But if you decide in ten years you would have passed yourself by ten years. But, why would we waste our time talking about this when the internet has an extensive collection of porn?

I like 'what if the world didn't exist (think human perception, dark matter and the double-slit experiment)' better.

Then you didn't really write this question and I didn't really just answer it. Put that in your pipe in and smoke it.

One can only verify the existence of one's own mind. Nothing more, nothing less.

i think that its possible, because we cant know that if we can program games or programs why we cant be simply programmed? I belive that world exists but we cant be 100 % that we cant be program or something else..

well then we'd better watch out for those Agents!!!

I never saw the Matrix. I got about halfway through the first one and someone knocked on my door and I didn't care enough to keep watching. Plus Keanu Reeves genuinely sucks.

Who cares, this steak is juicy!

Who says it does? In many ways there is a lot of truth in The Matrix. The world has indeed been pulled over many peoples eyes.

It doesn't, I'm a solipsist.

What if the world really does exist, but not in the form we see it...everything is actually upside-down, and straight people are gay, gay people are straight, zebras are red and blue... Thinking of such improbable fantasies does nothing but cause headaches.

If we are all a product of our environments and make choices and take actions based on that given the opportunity we would make the same decisions every time. It could be a whole loop that we live over and over again in the big bounce theory.

I am not here.

I believe there's a paragraph about this in metaphysics... --- I can't seem to find it however.

I don't care, I've been spending my life very well.
