I'm surreal.

As usual... and as predicted.... another shit and run thread with little to zero interaction by the OP.

Oh well.... at least it confirms that everyone who posts here is real Wink

Jesus is proof that we're real.

Prove to me you are real....

If you are ever in Kentucky look me up. I will buy you lunch. Ever had a BLT made with fried green tomatos. I know a place.

I think I'm real. I might be wrong, though. I can't prove that you're real, nor can I prove my existence to you. I can't prove anything is real. I just operate on the assumption that everything is, regardless. I experience this world just as you do, supposedly(even if you don't, you act as if you do, so I'll just assume you do for the sake of the argument). What is the difference, in our own minds, anyway, between someone acting as if they did something and them actually doing something? What does it matter to us as long as whether or not its true doesn't affect our lives?

Sure, you might get depressed if you started believing that your loved ones aren't really there, that they are all simply in your head, that this beautiful, amazing world isn't really here, that it's all just a great sham. But I don't see how you can justify that kind of belief without any actual evidence. In fact all the possible evidence points in exactly the other direction.

What I'm saying is, the world looks as if it's real, as do I right now, I imagine. My advice to you is to take that at face value until new evidence surfaces to convince you otherwise(not that I think any such evidence is even possible, in an absolute sense, at least).
