But if you cannot define "I", how can you say "I think, therefore I am"? What is "I" and, as a matter of fact, what is "to be"? If being is dreaming (the theory that we are dreaming all this), then what would we "be" when we are dreaming in the dream? Would this be truer, realer that the world we think of as the "real world" (i dont mean RPGs by this)?


THE CONFUSION THEORY which everyone argues with
If you dream you are aware. If you hurt you are aware. If one has has one thought, a concious, aware thought, that is proof of existance - even if that existance is purely mental and has no physical entiity. "I" is the awareness capable of thoughts I experience.

Please don't try and tell me you can be aware and not exist. That is a contradiction. You cannot "do" "have" or "feel" anything if you are nothing, and I cannot believe I am writing this! AAAARRRRGGG!
