Metaphysical discussion
I couldn't find a thread dealing with metaphysical questions, so I'll start one now.
Here are some questions (which were discussed off-topic in this Vampire thread, we can continue the discussion here): Is reality the same for everyone, or is reality experienced differently from person to person? For example, we all live in the same world. However some people believe that the world contains a divine power, a God. Since God might be very present in the lives of the religiously inclined, are they living in a "reality" of their own? Are the atheists living in another "reality" too? Or are we all living our lives in a computer generated world Ă* la Matrix? If something can't be seen or proved, can it still exist? Can supernatural things occur, or is there an explanation to everything, just that we can't always find the explanation? Is there magic in the world? What is love? Is there love?
