Platt, Yes, Platt you have a faith...we got that.
But why do you need a faith to act and survive in the world? Social quality?

Quoting Micah <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > "Nothing can be shown to exist independent of humans" is an objective > statement. It is fact. Not an objective fact, only a logical truism. It is true that the inference of of independent existence cannot be demonstrated. But we justify such belief pragmatically: we act and survive in the world by assuming it. We should not doubt in philosophy what we believe from everyday experience to be the case.
