You used a lot of words to say nothing. And you projected an awful lot.

Luckily, your thoughts don’t exist and your feelings are imaginary. So I can ignore them.

You sound as silly as the “soul believers” your imaginary feelings have you so keyed up about.

You said if something had no mass, it didn't exist. Now you've changed your abstraction.

Act with incredulity all you like, you know you're wrong.

Here's your attention, clown.

Figured you guys wouldn't have an answer.

When stumped & bewildered, the faithful usually resort to name calling.

Answer to what? And let’s be clear, you don’t know what I “believe” as I have never stated or even eluded to same. What I questioned was your statement that if something doesn’t have mass it does not exist. You response was that it does not exist “physically.”

So again. Your thoughts and feelings do not exist under your rules.

And I never called you any names. Again, you are projecting. And you are angry.

That's the difference between believers and nons. I don't claim to know everything.

Facts are like I said. You said if something had no mass it didn't exist. We both called you on it. Then YOU disappeared and come back having now moved the goal posts. I think souls exist. You don't. We'll both find out one day.

Not angry at all. And I primarily responded directly to the guy who called me a clown.

I'm just baffled you believe thoughts exist. If a child believes Santa exists, does he?

I'm having a hard time believing I'm having this discussion in 2018 and not in the Dark Ages.

This is bizarre to me. Of course thoughts exist. As do love, trust, respect, anger, pride...

These things shape the human existence. But you are saying they don’t exist because they cannnot be shown to have mass.

No, I didn't. I don't know how you can't comprehend sarcasm with the soul traveling freely in your body experiment I gave you.

Again, does Santa exist if a child thinks it.

Or will that get unanswered once again?

No pressure. Take your time.

Interesting to consider. How do they exist, are they just chemicals in the brain or something more?

Cause I'm stuck in the Dark Ages.

You know what you said the first time through and then the second time through. They are different. Go back and read it.

As incredulous as this may sound, your towering intellect, unfettered by a soul will not change my crippled mind. Sorry.

I suspect the answer will be something less.

You are having a huge disconnect.

Santa does not exist because a child thinks Santa exists. Santa as a being does not exist.

A child’s belief in Santa certainly exists.

The love I have for my children certainly exists.

Neither the child’s belief or my love for my children have mass. But both are very real.

Santa, in human form, does not exist. The thought of Santa DOES exist. Just as the thought of firm boobs exists. And my memories exist. The love of my daughters exists. NONE of these has mass yet they are real. How can you not grasp that?

Lol. The similarities in our responses is uncanny. Does that have mass?
