Of course, you already knew this didn't you? So may I ask why you chose to waste everyones time by creating a thread that could easily be answered in a sentence and a half? Do you think the people who see this thread will bother to look at others you create considering just how tedious a standard you have just set?

There is also no proof that the external world exists and that you are not in the matrix, or that the world didn't pop into being five minutes ago with the appearance of age--that there is a past. There are likewise no proof for basic logical principles because to argue for their truth would be to presuppose them and so be arguing in a circle.

Therefore, I believe I have shown that you are not justified in considering something absurdly fictional simply because you cannot prove that this something exists as I have given you things that we all rationally believe (the existence of the external world, the past, basic logical principles), yet we don't have evidence for their truth.
