Grand Illusion,
I have a question.
In this clip from David Icke's "Freedom or Fascism", he talks about the holographic universe and how objects are solid in our head cause we perceive them to be.
But if that's so then how come I still run into walls with my eyes closed? I went to a house with a glass maze in an amusement park once, and kept bumping into the glass cause I didn't know it was there and my mind thought that it was open space.
So how can I bump into solid objects I don't see, if Icke's theory is correct that solidity is only in our mind?
Any explanation?

Physicists like Kaku and Hawking dumb down their stuff for the general public. They use analogies to try and give us a bit of a taste of what they deal with. But it is a mistake to take those analogies and apply them to other things. People like Icke and Deepak Chopra have tried to coopt physics terms for their (in Chopra's case) new agey type hypotheses and in Icke's case his - I don't even know what to call them - theories. There is almost no chance that they actually do understand it. To suggest that what Icke is saying and what Kaku is saying are the same thing is misguided.

I'm suggesting that if the modern day physicist and the centuries old mystic got together to discuss this stuff, I suspect they'd find very quickly that they are not talking about the same thing. Or at least that the areas where there is similarity are small indeed.
