AAAH THE MADNESS OF TRUTH YARG
You are all wrong, because I think that you are wrong and thus you are.
The universe is wholly composed of chaos. Natural Laws as we know them cannot be applied to it, since to apply or not apply them would define what is undefinable. The concept cannot be explained to those who do not arrive at it themselves since we are designed to be unable to convey what it is.
Through some sort of astral burp, some form of sentience was birthed from the gaping maw of chaos. Before the utter oblivion and simultaneous existence around it caused it to go batshit crazy and collapse in on itself, it created filters to make itself think that it WASN'T in a chaotic universe. Withouth going into much detail about my view on life (not "wtf what is the point?" life, but "hey! homeostasis!" life), since we are all derived from this one thing we all still make use of the filters. It would APPEAR to me that the filter functions thusly.
Reality, in whatever form it takes to you, is completely fabricated by what you consider the mind. Everything, EVERYTHING IN THE ENTIRE "UNIVERSE" is merely a creation of my mind. Now, I'm not going for some stupid Matrix "the power is within you" angle (although it is, sorta...). All of this happens unconsciously. You are always doing exactly what you want to be doing; since you ARE creating this, why would you be doing something you didn't want to do? For example, let's say that you are kidnapped and tied up. You probably want to escape, right? Well, in order for you to want to escape you had to be captured in the first place.
In theory, you should be able to influence the world around you quite drastically. The only problems with this are thus:
-No matter what, you are limited to what you think are the natural laws. (If you think "I can fly", then you can't. If it was possible for you to fly, you would do it and you wouldn't have to wonder what it would be like if you could.) These laws include common things like gravity, thermodynamics, and other stuff such as "Dogs cannot talk."
If I may digress as I think I should, this itself raises some interesting points. When you were four, did you understand the laws of Thermodynamics? Yes, since you obeyed them. Only once you perceived a need for concrete explanation did one appear. Your definition of the laws may not be (hell, ISN'T) the same as mine, but that doesn't matter. The filters ingrained in me make me THINK that they are, and conversely you THINK that pencil is the absence of Lou Ferigno or whatever demented crap it is.
Anyway...
-The level of detail needed to make something fit in with your universe is astronomical. Snap your fingers. Then explain to me EXACTLY how you influenced the air currents in the room, how exactly the noise reflected off of EVERYTHING that it was able to reach, and so forth. Do you understand? I don't know if you do, but I'll find out when I decide how you'll respond to yourself (IE me).
You think I'm crazy? Why, while walking home today, did I see a long line of cars at an intersection, think of a Cake song, and notice that a bank sign said it was 64 (C= 3, A= 1 thus C+A=4, The eleventh letter of the alphabet (K) minus 5 in a way that I don't bother to explain since you're not real and thus won't get it yields E, the name of the band) degrees outside? Why when I learned the meaning of the word "fortnight" did I encounter the word eight times in the following two days? Why did I find this topic on the forum after conceiving of this theory?
Coincidence, of course! Well, you WOULD think that, self, not wanting me to know the truth and all.
...
I'll let you all go load your rifles and put my name on your Caller ID now. IF I THINK THAT YOU CAN OooooOOOOO
