A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.
I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!
Only goofs & silliness. (:

How? It has always encouraged solipsism within me because being absolutely certain that I exist very quickly casts doubt upon the existence of anything else since I cannot be as certain of it.
He tries to build further knowledge around it, e.g. using it to claim God exists. But it doesn't really work, and at the end of the day you get stuck into the "I know that I exist because I think." and nothing else.
Oh sure, the stuff he argued after doesn’t really hold up, but I’ve always had the sense that it would have been dangerous for him to suggest that God isn’t real at the time, and he maybe wouldn’t have made such arguments had he born in modern times.
That's a fair point.
