Quote:So you do not associate with solipsism ? How can you accept what you don't associate with.
I associate with it in the sense that I have been there, and grew out of it, like childhood. I prefer to accept things honestly as they are rather than what I would like them to be, because if I lacked that honesty in perception I would not be accepting myself in the first place.
Quote:What isn't apart of the term "I" so how is that silly ?
Read some philosophy of mind. Actually, just read any work on philosophy and your questions about the worth of solipsism will be answered, as being exposed to brilliant minds humbles a man. Solipsism is often mistaken as a progression of thought rather than a regression (like nihilism by edgy teenagers), it is baseline stuff, egocentric fundamentals that you learn at the beginning before you are afforded the option to transcend such things.
If you read my above posts you wouldn't need to ask that question for my opinion anyway, the "I" expands due to evolution, eventually becoming boundless ("all things") and no longer an "I". As for now though, I am not you and black is not white.
Quote:Do you conform to a groups current conceptual meme with everything or just solipsism ?
Look if you want to take that route I may as well be hitting myself with a hammer. Is the word "do" in your sentence a complete creation of your own or are you borrowing it from collective knowledge (that's right, something outside of you) and filtering that through your own understanding? Also my position of conforming or not has very little to do with the discussion.
