I mean are you really alive

[Dr. Quack]

Death or the dead
All the major faiths refer to us as already having died - Already being dead/fallen/forgotten/blind/asleep, or what the Hindu's refer to as being in a state of Avidya/Ignorance –

(Collosions 3:3)
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

ISLAM.
The Koran itself seems quite clear: "And you were dead, and He brought you back to life. And He shall cause you to die, and shall bring you back to life, and in the end shall gather you unto Himself." (2:28).

Buddhism
Avidyā (Sanskrit; Pāli: avijjā; Tibetan phonetic: ma rigpa) is commonly translated as "ignorance" or "delusion".

Hinduism
He who is forgetful of the Self, mistaking the physical body for it, and goes through innumerable births, is like one who wanders all over the world in a dream. Thus, realizing the Self would only be like waking up from the dreamwanderings.
Sri Ramana Maharshi (December 30, 1879 – April 14, 1950)

Is this a riddle, like; "what has two hands but can't clap?"

Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
Albert Einstein.

"Nothing is as it seems. Nor is it otherwise."
Lankavatara Sutra - Mahāyāna Buddhism

There is no greater mystery than this; that being the reality we seek to gain reality.
Sri Ramana Maharshi (December 30, 1879 – April 14, 1950)

Plato’s cave analogy.
Inprisoned inside the cave (Us), prisoners see the shadows on the wall and mistakenly view the shadows as reality. Every now and agian someone awakens to the truth and tries to tell others (Us), but the others respond with anger.

Greek word "cosmos" Meaning "In The World" functioning apart from God
And according to Early Christian gnosticism - "Seraphims" Keter - Crown Divine Plan ~ The Angel of Death. (Read John 7:7) Satan is the ruler of this "cosmos" (John 12:31; 16:11; 1 John 5:19)

Islam.
The Surah takes its title from the sentence, Wa anzalna' l-hadida, of verse 25.
(A study of its subject matter)
https://www.englishtafsir.com/Quran/57/
Surah Al-Hadid (its title meaning, 'the iron') talks about the reality of the transient life of this world.

Hinduism. (Caught up in Samsara – Maya ~ The Malevolant illusion)
In which this universe like a snake on a rope imagined appears.

15. He who sees the universe may try to deny it. What has the desireless to do? He sees not even though he sees. ASTAVAKRA SAMHITA – Chapter XVIII – P136

The universe is endlessly going through creation and dissolution. But that does not affect the Self. The Self is beyond time and causation. Creation and dissolution are in time. In reality nothing else exists. ASTAVAKRA SAMHITA – Chapter XV – P98

Why would I care?

Just downvote, set to enemy. Maybe it'll go away once it realises no-one's paying any attention.

Like I said in the other thread, this bloke used to post on another forum I'm on and he was fairly normal at the time. Not sure if he's went insane or his accounts been nicked.
