Metaphysical solipsism is a variety of solipsism based on a philosophy of subjective idealism. Metaphysical solipsists maintain that the self is the only existing reality and that all other realities, including the external world and other persons, are representations of that self, having no independent existence.

Just because it can't be refuted doesn't mean it's true either. Maybe take some basic phil

I'm going to reply to my own post.

So basically solipsism is kind of true but it doesn't mean I am alone. The reason I am seemingly not alone is because...we are all one.

We are all literally the same human being.

I've considered this and came to the conclusion that some of the things I encounter are way too specific and/or complicated for it to be true.

Reality wouldn't look as realistic as it does if it were only you here. It would look like how your dreams look.
That being said I believe your personal perception matters more than the world you are in. Such as changing dimensions in your own perception.

I still can't be ABSOLUTELY certain that God didn't create me. I really don't know the truth. I don't think any of us do.

Didn't we have this conversation 5 days ago?

>>39146270
Maybe you don't know because you are a pleb. Don't project your failings on to me.

Since you have a spiritual ego and won't tell me you clearly don't know.

>>39146030
solipsism is a massive waste of time. Even if other people don't actually exist in the way we assume, we still have to interact with these manifestations of self as if they are real to get anywhere in life or do anything, day-to-day.
>>
>>39146270
You already know since you are a snapshot of "God". Every souled being is. That's why "we are one" makes sense and also the "wait but if that's true then how..." also makes sense. One but many.

There is no god daddy. Happy? There was no reason to believe in one in the first place.

why are you lying

>>39146030
So the true self is "God" and we're all "fake" and we're all just part of the reality of "God"? Mmm...

The people who need a god are the little boys who are too scared to exist. You need a safety blanket so you know everything will be ok. It's your own need for god that makes you believe in one. There was never one. There was only the dream and the glorious insanity of existence.

>>39146242
>It would look like how your dreams look.
So you've never had a dream of a place you've never been before only for you to end up visiting that place later in life?

Whaaaaat

Out of the mouth of babes. Or in this case... heh.
>>
>>39146261
You think, therefore I am
Without others to perceive us, we wouldn't actually exist would we? The self is given it's being by others, for without others there would be no self and without self there would be no others.
2 sides of the same coin, one cannot exist without the other.
>>39146192
this is a lukewarm take, all is one and one is all, doesn't mean we're all one being. It means we are connected but we are still individuals. What you're saying is one is all there is, and it's just simply incorrect.
We are all of divine nature, we are sparks of divinity with an original source, but we are all different beings.

>It's literally fucking true. It can't be refuted.
>Keeps being refuted on the regular, be it on grounds of incompatibiltiy with fundamental cosmology of someone else's or lack of objective evidence supporting it
It happens very rarely but you've lost me at the fucking thread title, damn. The theory itself may be right but don't claim it's irrefutable, done deal, proven thing that is established when it's not, it makes you just seem like an ass full of himself and putting on airs.

>objective evidence
No such thing.

Who cares what we are ?
It's better to focus on what we do really.
Those type of posts cost me so much time, it's like someone wondering about the choice for
the different colors of monopoly bills instead of playing the damn game.

No. You procrastinate on your job her by thinking "But I must know !" when in truth, you don't.

I know, I'm the same, that's why I'm here instead of working on my book. But the book is my job. You have your job. Do it. Don't worry, you will know everything when you quit your earth body, which I hope will come late, when you have done everything you were set out to do.

Now, go ! Close this tab, I'll close mine too.
