This thread is in fact your mind's attempt to wake you up to the reality that you are the universe and all this is your invention.

We all came simultaneously... That's pretty cool actually.
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Tails thread:

You Started Existing 5 Seconds Ago
Tails Turrosaki:

All of these memories implanted into your head never happened.
All of the facts you were told are true, but you weren't told them.
You're up to date with everything, really, but you just started existing 5 seconds ago.

You can't prove that you had a life before, nor can you prove that you didn't. However, you existed only 5 seconds ago.
Comte de Saint-Germain:

Considering there is no empirical evidence to support this 'idea', it's more useful to work with the 'alternative' hypothesis (indeed theory) that we didn't. More importantly, it provides no answers, only raises more questions, which makes it essentially bad philosophy.

Just because something is cute (read: unfalsifiable) doesn't mean it is philosophy.
you are right, german saint. beliefs that aint falsifiable are bollocks.

Tails, sorry mate, the german ripped ya bad style. now tails aint got no case.
