Actually, this is quite comical, Roel. Because what you are describing is sheer FAITH, not proof.There's your proof. You can proof there's "an inside" by going INTO the building and you can proof there's "an outside" by stepping OUT OF the building. It's that simple. That's the same proof I'm asking for, but which you are unable to provide me with.
The fact that you could sense the outside before you went into the building does not amount to proof that it still exists when you are inside the building. It is barely even proof that it exists when you are outside experiencing it, because your senses can be deceived (ever heard of an illusion?).
So, while sitting in the building, you are referring back to your past experience that told you there was something outside. Since you can no longer directly experience that outside while you are sitting inside, you are drawing on sheer, unadulterated, 100%, homogenized FAITH that someone or something did not completely remove the outside scene you experienced, and replace it with the fire and brimstone of a hellish scene.
The same holds true for the sun rising tomorrow. You have duped your mind into believing that, because you watched the sun rise yesterday, that is PROOF that it will rise again tomorrow. Unfortunately, I am quite sorry to tell you that you are incorrect in this belief. As brokerage firms are forced to say in their commercials in this country "Past performance is not a guarantee of future profits".
Welcome to the club, Roel. You have just "proven" to us that even you, the ultimate non-believer, must rely on faith...every single day of your life. As much as you may feel comfortable in your physical world, you cannot escape faith. Can you give me factual proof that you will be alive tomorrow? By your very own descriptions in this thread, if you cannot perceive it, there is no factual proof that it exists. This obviously has to apply as time marches on, otherwise you would be subject to faith.
