You're jumping with dirt in your hand. It's still separating one point in time from another.

For this one you're separating two different places.

Since it is obviously not sinking in, the original point of it was to show that at that point in time and at that specific place, it cannot be both raining and not raining. Or you cannot be both on the Earth and off of it.
Therefore, there are things which are impossible. Contradictions are impossible.

-A round square.
-A cat that is alive and dead (I'm pointing this out so somebody can go "but but Schrodinger cat! It doesn't work like that.)

I could go on, but if this doesn't make the point, nothing will.

Since imagination doesn't own boundaries, I think not. ;) It may be physically impossible but that doesn't mean its impossible mentally.

If its drizzling (sprinkling) obviously its not raining hard enough to be considered rain, yet its also not unnoticeable enough to not be getting you wet. In our minds, this is comprehended as being possible because we can obviously see its raining. But mentally we know its only sprinkling, which is not considered as rain.

Imagination or not, there are obviously boundaries, the square circle or round square being one of them. If it's round it isn't a square, if it's square it isn't a circle. No amount of imagination can say that's wrong.

*sigh* That obviously still isn't rain, because, well...

Also, you haven't tried to refute the round square impossibility. I'm surprised ;)

Very similar to the "holding a handful of dirt. The shoes are not the Earth, not sure how the correlation was put together.

Cogito ergo sum. I think therefor I exist.

I know it's true because it says so right here in this signature.

Pixels. Pixels are squares, yet when put together right they make a circle out of tint squares. ;) Buy yes, there is such a thing as a round square.
