That's what I thought, also.

I'll try to keep the thread on track. I mentioned earlier my belief that we are all connected to the same life experience, and by extension are actually "one". So, if the world were all a big trick, I don't think it is one big trick for one person. We all exist and are being tricked, if we are. Think the Matrix. I think it is incredibly arrogant to think "I am the only one that exists and this is all a dreamworld meant to deceive ME". If self awareness increased empathy, it also greatly increased arrogance and selfishness.
