Who knows if someday it will be within the realm of possibility to prove their existence?

Ever heard of this one, then?
It's rather a good one to keep around in discussions like this, I find =].
Lush; as I stated explicitly in my post, I was not 'knocking' anyone. Simply discussing. (You may notice that Mans himself, to whom it was directed, seems to have taken it friendly-ly as it was intended [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img].) My opinion on Mans's kind of reasoning (again an explicit statement: I am discussing, and not hating...), i.e. of there not being a distinction between our mental thoughts and what is real
is as I said I felt it to be. I can be really quite imaginitive, of course; I would not be here otherwise, and would not make the often lengthy and thoughtful posts I do =]; but still, I am a rigid common-senser when I need to be. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
At any rate, though. If my thinking is 'linear', Lush, then
yours can be described as 'daft'. A significant proportion of this conversation indeed lies in the realm of wonderful fantasy. That is not to say this thread is unworthwhile -- but it is, partly, on the rather ridiculous side.
