2D, not real?Posted by the filthy_swine on November 16, 19100 at 05:00:04: In Reply to: Re: Just a quickie!... posted by jfuhr on November 11, 19100 at 21:30:42: If one looks at a 2D object as an impossibility,there would be so many impossibilities in his plain, everyday sight. A circle, square, triangle or any other flat two-dimensional object, for that matter, is as real as one's ability to perceive such a thing. For is a three-dimensional sphere not an impossibility too? This question is raised because the world of man is not one that is confined by three dimensions, but one that is free and open in a sanctuary made of many more. Just as it can be imagined that a circle drawn on paper is a 2D object, it is imagined that a sphere made out of clay has only three dimensions. For now, a sphere is merely just a sphere due to our total lack of ability to percieve the world in which we live. Until then...
