    Hello. Just a ponderment but is invisibility the same as non-existence? For example an invisible person may not be able to walk through walls, but what state is neccessary for such a thing? Or do you believe invisibility brings with it extra abilities, such as that mentioned?

    No.
    Invisible means not visible, like air for example.
    Nonexistence means something does not exist like a unicorn.
    Since an invisible person is just something you made up you can make up anything you like to go with it.
    Uh, OK I'll play. I think all invisible people are named Keith and they have the ability to solve nonlinear differential equations.

    Me too. ☺ Pleased to meet you Keith. Is it like God or Adam being Superman, or Saint Nicholas? ☺

    On another argument, if you were invisible, would you be able to see yourself??

    No, because an invisible person would be blind. Do you know why that would be so?

    Think of what photons do when they hit your visible body.
    Think of what photons will do when they encounter your invisible retinae - the ones that do not block - and thus do not absorb - photons.

    invisibility is the ability to glide through any structure by understanding the structures , emptiness .

    Inotherwords , the structures atomic and sub-atomic space .

    What? No.

    Invisibility means you can't see something - the word vision is right there as the root.

    You could certainly bump into an invisible wall. You could hear and smell an invisible person.

    Odors - while definitely physical molecules - are invisible to the naked eye, but they certainly can't pass through a solid wall.

    You may be confusing invisible with incorporeal - which means no physical manifestation.

    So an invisible person has to enter a prison cell to live with them, avoiding them the whole time? Would an invisible person passing through a wall when the potion wore off become infused with the wall? If something exists before me, such as my Father, is that why I cannot pass through them? *Protected by h*rd b*st*rd security*

    What about a Star-Trek teleporter? Could that teleport through/into a wall?

    Why would a person who is not visible be able to pass through walls?

    It appears so yes. The floor they stand on appears solid

    And I'm sure I have seen episodes where they are teleported into a cave

    Only time (I guess because of the storyline) teleporters don't seem to work is when something like a electrical storm is in progress or some material (some sort of metallic substance) is blocking
