Chunks of space rock neither breath nor think nor feel as far as we humans can determine. Does that mean they don't "exist"?

They do exist in a relation with me as i can see them,i can touch them ...... anything exists in a relation with something other.

In that case everything is self-confirming?
(That's something I deeply believe in though it can be very hard to demonstrate. Mathematics are entirely self-confirming in my opinion, however at the same time they - seem to - "work" for us, i.e. they - seem to - give us control over our environment. That's a mystery to me. Maybe the control is just an illusion. The ancient Greeks "borrowed" maths from the Phoenicians and Babylonians and Egyptians, i.e. from the Middle East, though as far as I'm aware of they were never too eager to give the East much credit, perhaps because they were their enemies and it's difficult for humans to give credit to people they hate and/or compete with. In the East at that time maths and physics and technology were referred to as "magic"

You apparently totally missed the point about why I mentioned the ancient Greeks. I would be happy to leave them behind, if people around me did so too. The heart of the matter is that Western Europeans by my knowledge are the only people on the planet who look upon their own ancestors with contempt, in favor of some distant "higher" culture. And if you can't respect your own ancestors then you can't respect yourself, and if you can't respect yourself you can't respect others. Does that ring a bell, looking back upon 500 years of Western European "civilization"? The ancient Greeks are with us. I wish they weren't, or at least in a bit more modest role..

Maybe i missed the point but i don't want go back to school where teachers were shouting"respect for your ancestors,they were great! Respect for your higher culture atc"Well there are always ancestors and next generations. Right now our ancestors even they were sooooo great can't help us .. Our higher culture can't help us.. Of caurse all this is good for our tourism and Greek supperiority and culture are so attractive for tourists.I don't invalidate their legacy ...I am thankful to them,nothing more nothing less...I prefere political history than history and political philosophy than philosophy. As for the respect of myself ,for me, has nothing to do with the respect for my ancestors. It doesn't happen automatically. I respect my ancestors- i respect myself-i respect others..It's really easy to respect the past and the ancestors but so hard to respect yourself according your behaviour in the present..

I don't need anyone to think or categorize things for me. Everything humans do is political in my view.

Academia's weak spot is that in order to make any sense it has to create divisions which are inescapably artificial and a reflection of the viewer's axioms rather than of any kind of "objectivity". Better stick with art, for only artists get to see at least a glimpse of the whole picture.
