: 1) If something cannot be touched or seen, does it really exist? For example, the mind and the soul can neither be seen nor touched, do they really exist?
: 2) What is a mind? Is it the same as the brain or is it different?
: 3) Fran says "so the thoughts in our minds are really just the traces of things in our memories?" Is this true? What are thoughts?
: 4) Is it true that all the thoughts that are in our minds are caused by things that are outside of our minds? What kinds of things exist only in our minds?
