I would like to disscus possibility and probability. My Aspergersyndrome allows me to have a different way of explaining things so bear with me.

I do not beleive that anything is possible. I do however believe that anything may be possible. But how are we supposed tp determine something like that. Our minds have made us believe a system of rules for reality and the universe. But there were no original rules to base that system on. So it is apparent that that system can be faulty.

How could someone make a desicion you ask?
I use probability. Believing what is most likely.
Of course the likelyness of things are subject to change but that dose not change the system.

For example it is unlikely that inanimant objects would come to life.
But if you saw this happen the probability would increase.

Remember, you dont controll your beliefs. your beliefs controll you.

be more specific please, i can see where your coming from and i’m trying to think of examples to your claim. lets take the impression of ‘‘me’’, My belief that a ‘‘me’’ exists leads me to believe that a ‘‘me’’ exists but i choose that belief. Your take please, soz i didn’t say much.
