Deep Thought (over High Tea)
Peter Ahumada

No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Deep philosophy has three answers. 1) I exist. 2) You might not exist. 3) Physical reality might not exist. (But it is a cool idea.)
How hard is that? If you ever thought philosophers preferred an irrational muddle to a right answer, come to chat about absolute certainty over tea.
