existence may not be there!!?

There is no universally accepted theory of what the word existence means. The dominant (though by no means universal) view in twentieth-century and contemporary Anglo-American philosophy is that existence is what is asserted by statements of first order logic of the form "for some x Fx". This agrees with the simple and commonsensical view that, in uttering "There is a bridge across the Thames at Hammersmith", or "A bridge crosses the Thames at Hammersmith", one asserts the existence of a bridge across the Thames at Hammersmith. The word "existence", on this view, is simply a way of describing the logical form of ordinary subject-predicate sentence.\n\nUnfortunately, this simple view is vulnerable to a number of philosophical objections, and the problem of existence is one that still exercises the minds of contemporary philosophers. This article is a brief overview of those problems, of the solutions that certain philosophers have offered, and suggestions for further reading.

I'm never really sure I do exist. I wake up and live my life and I do the same thing everyday and I wonder if it's all just a dream and I'm going to wake up and do it again. In my honest opinion, life is not truly worth living in the sense that we are all going to die anyways. Think about it. So we know the wonderful things about physics and we understand gravity, but does it really matter? Not really. It's because we all die in the end. I'm probably just using up the air. But I'll tell you, I'm having a good time of it. I don't know if there is something after this or if when I die I die. And not knowing is scary. I'd rather just live and enjoy because this may be all I get. Whoever I am. Below is something I wrote that more clearly explains my opinion. Or maybe it is just more confusing.

I totally know what you mean. I used to think about that all the time, but I would just exhaust myself. I think the only sure thing we know is that we know nothing. I am a bit of an agnostic, but certainly don't think that everything just happened by chance. Was there ever nothing? If so how did we ever get something? If scientist say there is an end to the universe, what is it like a wall? Plexi Glass that you just bounce of of? Or is it like Pacman where you just pop out on the other side? There is so much that is just unexplainable in t his world. I am just glad to be a part of it. I have pretty much given up on trying to figure it all out. While I am in no hurry to die, I am somewhat excited at the possibilty of everything being answered once I go. Good luck in your search for answers. We need the Teacher's Edition of the bible, one with all the answers in the margins( I wonder how much that would go for on eBay?)

it is verey possible to exist, all it would really be is a big ape,  many sitings of it have been recorded just not visually.  i think it is real it is just a shy creature most likly.  it could be realted to the yetti or somehting.

No.  Everything includes all the things that exist.  The future has not happened yet and therefore doesn't exist so you cannot possibly know it.

If no one is around to witness it, does it really even exist?

I once read a theory that the universe is so big, that there's a chance that not only is there another earth somewhere, but there's probably so many that there's bound to be one exactly like ours.  The universe is huge beyond our present ability to comprehend, and it would be highly ignorant to think that with all the building blocks of life floating around out there that life doesn't exist somewhere else.  Whether we ever find it or not is another question.

How is it rational to say with certainty that something does exist when the possibility will always remain that it does not?\n\nNOT believing is what atheism means.

A simplistic 'yes' or 'no' answer to the question of whether extra-terrestrial life exists is not likely to take us to any meaningful conclusion. Nor does a communal belief in the existence of extra-terrestrials lead us, as a race, anywhere closer to understanding the true nature of the universe and its myriad possibilities vis-a-vis the development of life within it. \n\nIt is also to be noted that believing in ET life is an entirely different thing from being successful in establishing their presence. Probabilistic calculations tell us that we would be fools to think of ourselves as the sole "living" beings in this universe. But, the observable universe, atleast as it is at the present moment and given the way we are looking at it, holds no clue of extraterrestrial life of any kind.\n(There's another but to this)But yes, belief in extraterrestrial life, backed by a mathematical understanding of the possibilities would definitely go towards refining our search methodologies. Thats if we are truly interested, and if there is imminent benefit in holding that interest. These are of course, entirely different topics.

yes, it does exist! we should believe that it exist! because if we stop believing it'll not only die out of our world but also from our hearts!!!stop trouble U!

Hello dear!\nGreat wondering! This is my perception of existence! It is really like that! Of course it does not agree with the laws, dimensions and way of thinking, but I am convinced that this is the truth!

A resounding YES! The reason we haven't met them is quite obvious, really. The incidents of life as we know it are so far apart that it would take more time for them to reach us or for us to reach them than any given life form in the universe has. In other words, we will all die and all trace of our existance will be long gone by the time any other beings got here. Take it from an alien!

Non-existence can never be proven.  Until evidence is presented for a things existence it's simply irrational to believe in it.

Illegitimate question.\nLinear beings like us can not comprehend "always existed".

The possibility exists, but what is the chance?

There definitely is something... what it is I am not exactly sure but, it is much more than anyone here can ever know. I have read a lot on this..and somethings have me think...maybe there is a better life after we die.... I am skeptical on quite a few things. I do however believe this physic Sylvia Browne.. You should watch and listen to things she says.. it is amazing.. She appears on Montel every Wednesday. Is there a "GOD"? That is not so believable from where I sit but, again, that is not been proven to me as of yet. LL.
