Hello Everyone,
Discovered or not, Everything has always existed; indivual obsevers, they're
the ones, we're the one's who don't really exist. Only sums of experiences
exist and they get less complex, with fewer boundaries on the higher levels.
Experiences are everything. You are everything.
There is no observer and nothing observed; there is only observation.
Chuck

That would be the conclusion of everyone. I wouldn't exist. I have never
noticed a younger brother, my mother never noticed a younger son being born,
there was no younger brother enrolled in school or babysat by neighbors, no
one has ever seen one or had any reason to believe that there is one. A
younger brother does not exist.
Everyone who exists has been noticed by someone, everything that exists has
been noticed by someone. Things only exist in consciousnesses.
Things that are discovered, like a new species or a new star or planet, come
into existence at the moment of discovery. Their prior existence is then
postulated back into history, which is now different from what it had been,
but it now has to be different, there is no way for it to be consitent (or
coherent) without this new thing existing. It wouldn't make sense for the
new thing not to exist.
Johnny
