Philosophical thought of the day:

If everything is relayed to us through ours senses then what is there to say that our senses do not lie to us?

Therefore what you percieve as me having posted something on this message board can quite possibly then actually be 'false data'.

Since all we have to rely on is our senses then there is no way to prove or disprove what is and is not false data.

Now that is established I ask how can you tell what is real and what is fake?

Sad part is I got this from a bad B movie called Darkstar and ever since I took College level Philosophy it makes too much damned sense.

Interesting...have any of you read the Sword of Truth series?  One of the more recent books in the series addresses something akin to that philosophy.

The idea of an honorable fight is a joke. What is honorable about harming another human? To win a fight, you have to forget about honor, forget yourself, and lose yourself in a cold burning fire. You have to strike until your target stops moving, smile as they bleed, and kill what soon will be no more then a red pulp a thousand times in your heart before you commit to violence.

theres alot of books that address both, i think i got Kuroishis from one of Hesses books, and i pretty much made mine up although i don't doubt that its not new, i just thought of it before i heard about it.

One of my favoritea philosophy i got from Cowboy Bebop; "Life is just my dream." Or thats me over simplifing everything.

ego
1 MAINLY DISAPPROVING your idea or opinion of yourself, or a great feeling of your own importance and ability:

I'm glad she got the job - she needed something to boost/bolster her ego (= give her confidence).
See also alter ego; superego.

egocentric

BABIES ( :aliengray are entirely egocentric, concerned only with when they will next be fed.

egomania

For those this message is mainly pointed to...
you know who you are
