How would you move a mountain?

This is a philosophical question, answer it as you like.

There is no mountain.

I would expose it to a relentless stream of bad survey questions like this one until it got so annoyed that it got up and moved itself.

I'd ask the bald kid to do it for me while I blankly looked on.

Why move the mountain? It's probably better off where it is. Then I can always go and visit.

By myself? One bucketful at a time.
With friends? Several bucketfuls at a time. Possibly a steamshovel.
With God? Through prayer.

With a spoon. Oh wait, there's no spoon either...
Maybe I'd ask Mohammed for help.

"With faith the size of a mustard seed", at least I recall that was Jesus' response.

friends come to visit and they move the mountain for me by putting it away somewhere that I'll never find it

The mountain is but a computer generated reality pulled over your eyes to blind you from the real world.

Chip away at it until it's just pebbles, then crate them up and truck them to where I want them

I'd turn around and instantly get lost. I know there was a mountain over there a minute ago...

I would not move a mountain. Instead, I would learn to live in a way that didn't require me to move a mountain.

bill: hmmm... I missed that one, I read it as a straight line. "How do you fix this problem?" "There is no problem, it's only in your head"

The Matrix made good use of a lot of basic philosophical concepts and quotes. I believe that "There is no mountain," far predates "there is no spoon," so I was intentionally quoting both source material and recent usage of it.

I wouldn't. In a few hundred million years it'll wash away. I can wait it out.

At first I was going to say (philosophically speaking) a pebble at a time but heck with that I'd move it with a hundred bulldozers or whatever else I can find. 'Course your more likely to have accidents that way. If you wait time and weather will do it for you. Yeah let's go with the last one {and the dragon goes back to sleep}. All metaphorical of course whether you mean change the world, fight for peace or what not...
