> I have a new religon, it is my thoery I have of how the universe is. Ok, so what if I am the only person in existance and there is noone else alive??

Here is where I see your first problem. Because, I am alive. It could just as easily be said that I was the only one alive and that you were indeed a figment of my imagination. But you know that you're alive, do you not?

>Think about it!

No, I'm afraid that *you* need to think about it. It just doesn't make sense. I'm sorry. I accept that it *may* be possible, but it's very very unlikely.

>How do you know anyone other than yourself exits and the rest of the world isn't just a figment of your imaganition??

First, please only use one question mark. We don't like multiple question marks on the forum. It wastes memory and makes you look immature. Second, it's "imagination", not "imadanition". Learn to use a dictionary.

>Waht if I have in a box somewhere with electrodes in my brian, and they are feeding me the images that I see and hear? Even touch and taste and smell can be faked by manipulating the brain with electrodes!

Again, I see a problem with your "logic", if it can truly be called such. If there were a box somewhere "feeding" you signals, who made the box? If you were the only one alive, then how could someone have made the box and put you in it? It just doesn't make logical sense. Please think more about your theory before basing a whole post around them. Personally I feel that your post was a waste of time, and posts like those should not be posted.

>What if my body isn't even have arms and legs, what if it is tentacles and scales and an external disgestive system or something wierd like that???????????

Again, limit yourself to one question mark please. Also, in the first sentence, "isn't" should be "doesn't". I also have to ask why you would possibly think this? Why would it have tentacles? Why do you even need a body? If you *did* need a body, who would feed it? No one, if you were the only one alive. Get a clue.

>Think about it!!!

Please use only one exclamation point per sentence.

>Even our body's are not neccesarily what we think they are because we find out what they are by our sense of vision and sense of touch -- what if these perseptions are fed to us by electrodes?

Learn when to use apostrophies please. It takes integrity away from your posts when you use them incorrectly.

> so my new religon is that noone of you exist except for me, who is god because if there is noone else there is noone that can assert themself as god, and my body is in a medicinal labratory somewhere with electrodes in my brain.

I thought you said you didn't have a body! It appears as if you haven't thought out your point well enough! And, if you were truly in a 'labratory' you wouldn't be God, since 'labratory's are made by God.
