I get what you mean Shannon. There are individuals out there who seek to disprove most things instead of taking a neutral viewpoint. They begin with the assumption that it doesn't work. I try to keep an open mind, but I've always had a desire for figuring out how things work. To me understanding how something works is what makes it real. Without solid evidence I find it hard to believe. Of course this might be what holds me back the most, I'm unwilling to accept things unless I can see proof. Sometimes there isn't enough substantial proof, but at the same time you can't dismiss it all the way.
I often wonder what reality is actually made up of. Why things are the way they are and what is possible. We have these limits in our minds, but can those limits be broken? I can't really put into words how I feel about it. It's more like not knowing of other things out there and feeling like sometimes maybe we make up these things as a way to make ourselves seem more important than we actually are.
Man, thinking about that stuff always turns my world upside down for a brief period of time. Reality is weird when you think about it, so is existence.
