    Harsh!!! Every body has the right to do mistake...

    "You did, sarge", said Polly." You said you were in few last stands."

    If you were a proper inquisitor you would burn him at the stake if the sun did rise.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    That's an unfair statement.

    Considering where you live, you always wake up to heavy rains...

    You don't have to be a prophet to predict rain here... But actually seeing the sun... I had such secret high hopes for this one (can't show it in public). Damnable. Just another quack. "Stoke the pyre Sigvart!!"

    They do indoor pyres. Even if the building catches fire, there's no risk of it spreading.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
