"If your thoughts are illusions," YOU SAID: "I didn't say that. I said the idea of a time that is past is an illusion; and, the idea of a time that is future is illusion"
What you actually HAD said, however, was this:
The memory of the past and speculation on future are mere illusions
If you are now saying that your memories and speculations are not thoughts, then perhaps you would be so kind to tell me just what passes for speculation in your head!
Well, you are the physical science zealot; so, demonstrate for me the existence of a past
I am not, and I have not argued for the existence of a past. I merely asked you about the illusionj of your thoughts (i.e. memories and speculations).
First, you respecting anything, comes under your responsibility not mine. I have my doubts about your abilities in this area.
I've hurt your feelings again? Gee, I wish the girls I knew were as sensitive as you!
Secondly, as I have stated, time is an illusion...not thought.
You stated that your memories and speculations were illusions. Let me quote you again: "The memory of the past and speculation on future are mere illusions "
The ONLY question left for us is the question of whether or not your speculations are thoughts. I made the assumption that they were. But if you are not experiencing thoughts--it would explain a lot of things to me! <GGGG> |
