    You are aware that those rules are the primary rules for what ends up as really, really brutal dictorships?

    Because if your always right and something goes wrong then it's traitors in our midst who did it...
    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?
