What is existance?

I know this has a lot to do with religion, but PLEASE don't make this a thread arguing over belief and religion. No flaming. Peace.

Last time I dropped some Acid or a lot of the times when I'm really high I get to wondering. What if there was no existence, no consciousness... nothing at all. Not even nothing, because even an empty endless black would still have to exist. Without existence there would be no past, no present, no future... no thoughts, no color, no senses; a complete lack of anything and everything. Not sure exactly how else to explain complete lack of existence.

I'm not religious really, although at one point in my life I believed in Christianity. Now a days I'm pretty much an atheist but even science can't explain existence. That's what makes me wonder. When I die one day, perhaps I will find out... or not? If there ends up not being a realm to go to I guess I really wouldn't be able to give a shit. But still, what makes things exist? What is existence? Perhaps somewhere there is a realm without any existence, but then again wouldn't that contradict itself? If many people believe a god created existence, than how in the world did it come to exist? The world may never know.

Thoughts and comments?

FIrst you have to define what is the it perceiving existance...
Does only those things withing the range of our ordinary senses and measurements exist?

I can touch there for I feel........I have thought there for I can think......I can breath therefore I can inhale MJ......I can see there for I have something to masturbate to. You gotta love existance

LOL. You never cease to amaze me my friend. So simple, yet SO true.

being self aware of self being conscious of whats around and in front of you.... that's existence.

I've had much reason to believe that there is such a thing as conscious energy.. a form of energy that transcends our bodily functions.

you know they cannot tell you exactly why or how our eyes translate the electrical signals they send through the optic nerve to our brain to turn it into a visual picture.. we can speculate all day scientifically but I believe the solution lies in conscious energy, the one form of energy that remains undiscovered and ignored by science.
