I always forget them! Not that I could identify a Nr. #1 like that really. But... one thing is that everything I ever think or anyone will ever think will be a relative perspective. Thus, objective reality is either an illusion or unknowable. Kind of a fun thought. And it's a good combination for philosophical people who are also lazy, like me. I can just say "meh, can't really know it anyway" and get on with it, lol.
My favorite is: Is this really happening or am I in a coma somewhere, and this is all a dream my mind is creating.
How do you know the past actually happened? How do you know you didn't just pop into existence with false memories of your life?
Why bother? After all like they say, you can't take anything with you when you die, and then you're forgotten about after a few generations. Then what? (Sorry it's depressing.)
That the world is pointless and the earth is just a tiny speck in the universe. ---------- Post added 13th Jan 2016 at 07:11 PM ---------- Ever since I read the Maze Runner I've had that idea. xD
I have absolutely no evidence that anyone I have not directly observed is real. I have no evidence anyone I HAVE observed is real. You can try to convince me by saying "I'm real! I have thoughts and emotions and stuff!" But your only way to prove this is by saying "I'm real! I have thoughts and emotions and stuff!" I have no way of knowing if I am actually a super-being who created all of this for my own entertainment, and that I didn't just create you all. And you cannot prove otherwise.
It's usually during a moment where I think about making some sort of movie or short film. Parts and scenes, which motivate me to do what I want.
What if our whole life is just a dream that we've been living out, and in reality, we haven't even been birthed yet?... 0.o
I don't know if it's exactly 'deep' but one of my more recent thoughts was when I was reading some passages; Genesis and the Life of Christ; it got me to thinking that maybe God isn't as perfect or all-knowing as people say he is. Perhaps when he banished Adam and Eve from the Garden to live on Earth with pestilence, famine, etc. he was - like an angered Father - punishing them out of spite. And when he realized how awful it was that the sins of the parents fell on the offspring, he sent Jesus to reprimand his mistake and make things right. Giving those who believe a chance to come back to him.
I have no absolute proof of the existence of the universe. I don't know if I even exist. Typically the kind of shit that made me go nuts
How much of my behaviour is predictable... at least in theory? It's not my deepest thought. It's just one I've been thinking about recently. I had a morbid thought last time I was depressed. If I killed myself, would it cause less emotional pain OVERALL to people? (rather than living the rest of my natural life?) If I even said "good morning" to the postman, then I felt like I was manipulating him. It was a horrible feeling, like yellow croc shoes level horrible x 50 :eek:
