You are perceiving your perceptions! That is all.
All of science is built on the idea that our perceptions are real!
But! Our perceptions are not only interpretations of what we think is there, but they also deceive us!

If we can only perceive our perceptions, and we have no proof that our perceptions are real (but instead only an interpretation of our mind), then we have no proof that the so called "physical objects" are real! There is No Such Things as Things!

Believe in things if you want, but with out your senses you can't perceive of anything, and therefore you are crazy for believing in something that you cannot see, touch, smell, hear or taste. To believe in such objects is absurd! NOOB!

Ok... that's all nice, but meaningless.

Even if my bed is not really a bed, my understanding of it as a bed is conducive to my perceived interaction with it.

Science is more about what works rather than what's true. It's just natural to establish something-that-works-constantly-on-both-
inductive-and-deductive-levels as true. And that's basic cognitive development.

Now you can reply that it's all imaginary and there is no such thing as deduction... but just by typing words you're violating the application of your own argument.

Er I mean... you're so deep.

We create our reality. If we decide something is real, it is.

Why does it matter if things aren't real? You're still perceiving the same shit.

You're trying too hard to be philosophical, and instead just making yourself sound like a dumbarse.

but in response to your groundless insights, whether the outside world is real or not is something that's never going to be proven and is therefore irrelevant to our existance. We may as well live for what we can see.

That matters less than anything when having an actual discussion (a rare event in general, I know)

I actually agree with Grizzli... he's trying to be overly philosophical and, really, the idea has been overdone and is absurd. Reality is real enough for me.

I suppose this is why I hated the philosophy class I took.
