 | | If you are of a philosophical bent, you have to concede at a certain point, "Sure, I guess it's POSSIBLE that the sun won't come up tomorrow, but COME ON." Obviously, it is not 100% certain, but any reasonable person would rate the odds of the sun NOT coming up tomorrow as being nearly infinitesimal. |
 | | It's like some annoying solipsist who's seen "The Matrix" too many times and continues to insist, "you can't PROVE that there is any actual external reality, it COULD all be a dream or a delusion or a computer program or blah blah blah", the whole "brain in the jar" concept. |
 | | You have to concede that, well, you can't be 100% CERTAIN that there is an external reality. |
