Existence? I thought we were going to debate what stupid reason we were planted on this world for other than fucking, eating and shitting.

But, seeing that this isn't the case I'll throw my two cents in about the subject; I'm currently sitting in my room, on a chair, typing this out on my keyboard. The message will appear and therefore the message exists.

I believe that something has to have some sort of impact in the world/universe for it to exist. I'm not a big philosopher and I'm not great at conveying the message I have in my head, but I hope you understand what I mean. To put it another way;

Let's assume that a closet has one box of toys and no-one has entered the closet since the box has been placed. There is no holes for rodents, spiders and any other vermin. The closet is completely airtight and there is no chance of earthquakes or any other natural disaster. The boogie monster is capable of teleportation.

A kid can come up and say that there's a boogie monster hiding in their closet. Fair enough, you go and check to put the little bastard's mind at rest. After checking the closet, you notice the box of toys has not been moved from it's original location. You can then tell the kid that there is no such thing as the boogie monster seeing as there's no evidence to claim that anything, other than the box, has been in the closet.

If, however, you go in and you see the box knocked over with toys strewn all over the floor then it would be safe to assume that something big and bulky has been in the closet to knock over the toys.

If you see where I'm coming from, you deserve all the respect in the world.
