That's easy, Honey, I can move back and forth, up and down, and right and left.
Can't you?
By my basic mathematical skills, that only makes 3 dimensions.
Worse still, saying she can do it is not evidence that she can actually do it and is certainly not proof!
Quite right. I remember explaining to a friend of mine how originally numbers had to be proved to exist. He didnt get it - ''Of course 'one' exists and 'two' is just twice as big'' so I gave up. Sometimes so-called obvious things need a bit of digging into. That's why I originally said that things are too complicated to understand. In fact, you can't even prove you exist at all - you could be uploaded (tongue in cheek). I guess the fact that you believe yourself to exist proves that something exists. Cue the philosophers.
All I was doing was answering astophsyics question from a teen. not claiming Philosophy. I thin you haver missed the point.l Just like a man.
