According to physics, we never touch anything, eletric repulsion prevents us to do that. In physics, when two atoms "collide" they do not really touch each other, but interact through the eletric force. Why our hands cannot pass through the wall ? Its because eletric repulsion between our atoms, and the wall atoms prevent us to do that.
it all depends on your level of perception. do you actually breathe the air around you? its not about physics or anything like that. there is the act of touching something. did you do it or was it pre-destined and a fate that is unalterable, unchangeable, and there is nothing you can do not to touch that something? Or did touching it start a chain of events that will spin on and on into the future. i dont think the question is do you ever touch anything but rather is the toucher really you...
interesting points but if your going to get into the varry fundamentals of it all the simple answer is no. we don't touch anything physically. if you look at our atomic structures you see that we are in basically holograms none of our atoms aculy touch we are in essence non solid and beings of energy.

I think he meant "Do you ever really touch anything?"(physically, I mean), or else he should just asked "Does fate exist?".
We do not touch anything, the touch sensation is a electric impulse that our nerves feel, and we do not need to "touch" things to electrical impulses to be generated.
im sorry i was rambling, you are right.
i know this is off topic but can anyone answer a couple questions for me
what is the speed of light, in miles per hour
what is the size of the circumferance of a hydrogen atoms electron orbit,
and do all electrons move at the speed of light
wow i really appologize for being off topic but you sound like a bright bunch and i think you could answer these for me.
and i think that by touching is a matter of ones opinion of what a touch is.

so you're saying ......... what people do at night shouldn't be considered "touching themselves"?

No problem, I like answering these questions 😄
If 1 mile = 1,61 km(what I am not sure of, since were I live we not use miles too much, but I think its right), doing the calculations 1 mile/hour = 0.45 meters/second, and c = 1.35*10^8 miles/hour or c = 13,5 billions of miles per hour.
The radius of the hydrogen electron orbit is r = 0.5 angstrom = 0.5*10^-10 meters = 5 millimeter divided per 10 millions. So the circumference is l = 2*pi*r = 3.14*10^-10 meters.
No electrons move at the speed of light, they can just move near it. Only massless things can move at the speed of light, this happens because anything that has mass will have its mass increased proportionally to its speed, near the speed of light the mass will be so great that you will need a great amount of energy to move it faster, so you will never get something to move at the speed of light. You would need infinite energy to do that. But photons, which are the particles of light, do move only at the speed of light.
