Thanks Aaron Good humour. 🙂

I've figured everything out. A certain spiritual guru talks nonsense!

Just wanted to remind you. Death is coming. Good luck.

I ordered some food. Now what? The end of the universe?

Nice try Tyler Durden.

I am only seeing what I am seeing 👀

Your saying that you are separate from me? I thought the universe was one

Yes, but I am everything, so why are we even having this conversation

Is that what you think

what if good and bad really exist? what if we have free will? wouldn't life be meaningless if this wasn't the case? why do you want to believe life is meaningless? have you forgotten something?

You want meaning? Then you listen to someone like Eva Cassidy sing, then you can't deny there is meaning. Or, you just believe it's all in your mind. Up to you.

Truth and meaning are so intertwined, I would almost say they are synonymous.

People always tell me I am "different" People have tried to call me "autistic", but other people have pointed out that I don't fit into that category either. Once, I was almost assessed by professionals, because they thought they had discovered someone so unique, that they couldn't box me into any form of mental illness. I don't know what to do about this. Perhaps I am "special", like my parents told me when I was six? And when they said that, I said: "everyone is special"...but they insisted that I was extra special, like an anomaly in the universe. I don't know what I'm supposed to do about this. Leo, maybe you can help?

There is nothing I can verify that is outside of my own experience. So that is impossible. But I can still "believe" in things outside of my own experience. Ok, Just because I believe it does not mean it is true. But also, Just because I believe it, does not mean that it's NOT true.

It's OK, I still just see black shapes on a screen. I know that my mind creates the meaning behind the words. This does not, however, negate my point that there could be an inherent meaning to life, beyond the mind.

You got it And you're a trap, Cos your name says "crocodile"

that's what you "believe". hahaha

Your day is ruined because I made you question your reality? Have a cup of tea.

funny how he doesn't have a reply to that

Yeah this is where faith comes into the picture, which you have none of. Because having "belief" requires humbling yourself and taking a "leap of faith". This means looking beyond the self. It could be possible that Heaven exists. Having faith means looking beyond your direct experience, and BELIEVING. This is why religions talk about "believers", because "believing" is very important in this matter, which you completely ignore.

That is solipsism. I have gone meta, in that i believe that something exists beyond my mind. So it is irrelevant if my mind decides there is meaning to the rock, ha

Did you believe you were the only thing in existence when you were a young child? I didn't. Is this something you have let your mind convince you of?

look at my edit

yeah, but there could be an inherent meaning infused into the universe. meaning may not be simply created by the mind. have you considered this? how's that for going meta? maybe you can see that something actually exists outside your mind, Leo?

in what way is it "gangster"?
