Oh no no no no!! No "we"!
"Everything"
didn't start out with one person's bumpersticker saying. And to think that you have to follow that 'bumper' to discover
your world sounds like a religion rather than any sort of philosophy/critical thought.
Quote:If your going to doubt the existance of physical objects
Nope! Everything exists!
There is no evidence that anything 'exists' beyond the context of mind. (See: Bishop Berkeley)
Quote:and the mathematics that defines them
Mathematics can never be more than a partial definition/description.
Quote:you might as well doubt thought and the very essence of our existence
Yes! That is philosophy! Doubting and therefore critically examining all 'assumptions' and 'axioms'. Real philosophy is zetetic, based on honest skepticism.
Quote:because we are in fact a phyiscal begin unless we are pure energy.
There is no difference between 'matter' and 'energy' except
velocity.
And there is no such "in fact", but is an 'appearance to certain Perspectives.
As you perceive the 'physical world' in a dream (at night) to be quite 'physical' and 'real', of what is that 'stuff' composed? Who are the actors in your dream? While dreaming, you will swear that all is 'real'/'physical'. There is no difference, waking and sleeping, you are still dreaming a world and swearing that it is 'real/physical'.
'Materialism' is a refuted philosophy.
