1. How do we know that everything we perceive to be the truth and right is actually the truth and right?

2. In what language do we think?

3. In what language do we dream?

4. What is life?

5. What is the meaning of life?

6. What is faith?

7. Why?

1. act to the best of your knowledge
2. we think in thoughts
3.we dream in dreamwork
4.life is the pursuit of happiness, which has no purpose other than feeling good
5. ^ditto^
6.faith is belief in something for no other reason than a gut instinct
7. 'cuz

1. We don't.

2. We think in whatever language we know as our own. Even deaf people think in Sign Language.

3. Again, we dream in whatever language we know as our own.

4. Life is about taking risks, having no regrets. Life is about being yourself, no matter what people tell you or how they shape you.

5. I don't know the meaning of life.

6. Faith is a true belief in something unproven and possibly unlogical.

7. Just because.

1. Because my beliefs, are meant for the good of mankind and to serve the one true living god whom has proven to me his existance.
2. The language we think in is the language of the soul which translates into our own language. you do not think "I am angry" you feel it and your soul translates it into a thought so you think "I AM ROYAlLY PISSED AT ____________" words are actually vibrations everything is a vibration (Superstrings theory) the vibrations translate into sounds that we percieve to be what they are. Language is a illusion.
3. in language terms I dream in "English" and "german" and I think in "English" and "German" (usualy in "English")
4.Life Once it begins never ends life is in your soul your body is just a temporary vessel.
5.The meaning of life is worship
6.Faith is what you believe in rely on and depend on,everyone has faith even atheists , But My Faith is in the one true God who was and is and is to come. he is the ONLY way to heaven. he is Jesus Christ.
7. Why not?

I think the meaning of life you loser is to have fun of course...

1. We don't definitely know. We just have to assume that the reason and revelation we have been given, leads us in the right direction. All we can go on is what we have. In reality, we can all live in a Matrix, or we might not even exist, or we can be something that is too abnormal to comprehend. Who knows. So, assume that what we have been given, was given to us for a reason and leads us in the direction it does for the right reason.

2. I don't think I can speak for everyone, but I speak in English...I believe.

3. Dreaming is all in the mind, so again I dream in English, and I don't know about everybody else.

4. Life is time.

5. The meaning of life is to pass the test.

6. Faith is what is used to realize the higher truth.

7. I am not at liberty or knowledge to answer that.

1. We don't know. Htat is wha faith is.
2. I think in my language, which is different from everybody elses cuz i am an individual.
3. Who knows?!?!?!????
4. The world is a game of chess, we are but pawns in someones game.
5. We are probably here to entertain someone else.
6. Faith is our beliefs.
7. Dont we all wonder..............

While living on this earth, you may never find an answer that with satisfiy you, but the questions is are you going to waste you life away worring about it or are you going to get up and live you life. I choose to live.

Language....all.

1. We don't.

2. I think in English. Sometimes Latin or French.

3. I dream in English. Sometimes Latin or French.

4. An incredibly long series of moments.

5. I don't think there is a meaning to life. And if there is, it's definitely not to have kids.

6. Believing in something you don't know for sure is actually there.

7. Damn. I put "Why not" but then I realized someone else had already said it.

Those are some really deep questions. I have to think about that.

That's a really interesting study.

As to your questions why what? I say: Why anything?

1. All we can go off is perception, so to propose a truth outside of perception would be utterly pointless and contradictory because it’s not possible for us to discuss or think of such a thing because we are still using our perception when we do such. So what this would be equivalent to is using perception to prove that perception is false. So ultimately we have to pick either what perceive is for the most part true or we believe everything we perceive is fake; one of the few black and white situations in this world.
2. This is extremely subjective, some of my friends don't think in language at all while as I think in English and sometimes German.
3. Mixed, I'm hesitant to use this term but in my dreams it seems to be more a physic connection, most of time there is no speech but I still understand the other dream person. Berenlen explanation is excellent as well.
4. Some reason my mind is having a brain fart on this one. The only thing I can say is that for something to be alive it must die eventually.
5. There is none. My biological purpose is to reproduce and continue the species for no apparent reason.
6. Belief in something without reason or logic.
7. Why what?

Have you heard the story about how a philosophy teacher asked the question 'Why?' as the only question on the test and everyone was writing down complex answers. Then this guy wrote just the phrase 'Why not?' and got an 'A'?

---

I had a similar story to this. In particular in my logic class we were discussing the effects of popular culture on logic (media, social myths etc) and the last question for the test on this topic was why? Later it turned out the teacher put this question on there just for his own personal study and to prove a point, so the question didn't count. In particular he brought up the urban legend several times while we were discussing the affects of popular culture and he wanted to see in the face of education how likely were people to still fall back onto social myths. Even after all the lectures on being specific when it comes to questions and answers a large majority of the students still followed the social myths rather then asking for the question to be more specific.

Well, I am glad he got an A for answering Why not?

Heh, I would probably do that, but no I haven't heard the story. I guess I have now though.
