Reality?

This post will make a lot more sense if you have seen the movie "what the bleep".

If everyone creates there own reality, then why do so many people create similar realities? I went for a walk the other day with my friend. We talked a lot about quantum mechanics. According to this theory, I was creating the place I was walking, and the conversion between me and my friend. And I was even creating my friend. So if I create my own reality, nothing really exists, except when I create it. Although at the same time I was thinking this so was my friend. In her mind, she was creating the walk, the conversion, and me. Was I creating a reality is which she was thinking that? Or wore we both simultaneously creating the realities that were the same?

There are about 18 000 000 people living in New York. All of them creating the own reality. All of then creating a reality in which New York has the same buildings, streets, parks, and people, as everyone else that lives there. So how is it that about 18 000 000 people are creating the same reality at the same time? Is everyone getting ideas of what reality is from some where else? According to this theory external ideas are impossible. Everyone creates there own reality.

If I create my own reality, nothing is really “there” until I see it. And when I look away it’s gone. This idea that in order for something to exist, it needs to have an observer (someone to create that reality) is impossible to prove. In order to see if reality actually exists, you need to see if its still there with out an observer. So you take away the observer to test if reality still exists with out an observer. But then you have now way to tell if still reality exists. So you take a look to see if reality still exists, after removing the observer. But as soon as you take a look, you’re observing, and there for creating the reality that you wore trying to do the tests on.
If it’s imposable to prove weather or not people create there own reality, than it is just a hypothesis to be thrown on the scrap heap. With all the other hypothesis that can’t be proven. So I’ve really come to no conclusion here, except that this theory is nice to think about. But a load of bullshit. Just like most religions...
