Default Re: If There Is No God

I enjoy the scene in "Kate and Leopold" where he is warned not to turn on the dishwasher until Kate is up to see it because, "If a man does the dishes and nobody sees it, did it really happen."

I'd be interested in any comments on what the standing of AM would be if nobody paid any attention to it. Unlike the speed of light or the force of gravity ( which seem to Absolutely apply whether we want them to or not), what does it mean to say something exists if it influences nothing? How is that different from not existing. or to paraphrase Bill, "what is the meaning of 'is'".

luckyme,
.. if I thought I was wrong, I'd change my mind

If no women can hear a group of men talking in a forest then are they still wrong?
