what you're really doing is telling us we have to doubt our reality because of the small chance that it is wrong or mispercieved...relative if you will.
However, doubt does not lead to checkmates and chess will not save your mortal soul... or will it?
read the whole thread jackass (that would be you mosai), like maybe the OP and other discussion, and then comment on things not taken out of context.
Chess is as real as anything else. Just because you believe that nothing exists because it can only be described with words doesn't change the fact I am sitting here playing chess right now. I guess we have to have faith that we exist then which is no different than having faith in God or Allah. We're not all right but then again does that really matter?
It is the term reality that is unreal...
Nothing is real. Strawberry fields, forever. Pass the mushrooms and the funny cigarette.
Well, at least you can't "say" what it is. But does that mean it doesn't exist?
It seems that it may be the same as using negative space to define an object.
also, venn diagrams come in handy sometimes :)

This thread is complete nonsense.
Everything is nonsense when you have the comprehension skills of a gnat.
Poking holes in OPs argument and this guy can't understand that, maybe someone else will.

I agree with mosai;)
...because you don't read the whole forum trysts, oryou're too dumb to figure out there's two sides to an argument and the word context means nothing to you. 
This is not a forum for the closed-minded or short-bus occupants.
so what is reality then?
Brahman is the only Reality. Everything else is Maya (illusion), including ourselves as separate beings: http://www.hinduwebsite.com/hinduism/concepts/advaitaconcept.asp
The one and only post worth reading in this thread.

Are you seriously defending this ridiculous thread? I'm definitely too dumb to figure out why you would
I once read a story that a caterpillar was cause of anarchy and famine in an ancient state.
is johnmusacha the Brah man ?
It seems idealism, realism, pragmatism, and most applicable to this forum existentialism are all lost on some people (trysts). Maybe you just shouldn't post in here if that's the case and let us have our ridiculous philisophical discussions without whiners. (that's sarcasm for those who don't understand that...trysts)

And it is a ridiculous disscussion, if you'd ever taken philosopy you'd understand why we still have it. But you still came in here for some reason. Weird, since the title pretty much sums up the discussion.

Okay, you're right, Chewie. I can't comprehend how profound this thread is so I try to cover up my stupidity by dismissing it. Please continue your discussion so I can at least try to learn something this morning
