i dont believe the topic brought up was "do i really exist" or "do you really exist", I believe the thread is called "do we really exist" unless I am mistaken, WE refers to a group of people, ie. PLURAL. Just because I exist doesn't mean you exist. If you do not exist, there cannot therefore be a WE.
Also, the original post refered to the fact that everything the observer (ie. me) knows is based on signals recieved by the brain, thereby refering to the philisophical theory known as Solipsism which suggests that anything outside of the mind is unjustified. I believe that my comments were therefore, not only more on topic than anyone elses, but also a lot more helpful to the original poster.
I do actually know what I'm talking about.
