Well if you want to delve really deep into this topic, can you really prove that *anything* exists?

I mean sure we notice things based on our perceptions, but how can we be sure they are anything more than perceptions? How do we know the life we live is anything more real than a dream? What if death is simply an awakening from this dream and the entrance to reality, with entirely different concepts and physics where time, space, matter are all nonexistent, replaced by other concepts which are incomprehensible to our current being. Well, we don't know. Sure we're 99% sure that our life is real and affects other humans and that these concepts we speak of exist, and that's enough for me. But is that really enough to say anything is proven?

No, I'm not a nihilist. If I was nihilist I would think life was not worth living and that life is essentially meaningless. I only think there is a very tiny possibility that our lives are not real. Just like I think there is a small possibility God could be real but yet I think religion is stupid.
