As exciting as the matrix-world would be, 'real' reality will always have an edge.<BR/><BR/>The part I will appreciate most is when I can upload my consciousness to live on after I die, to exist as an avatar and download into robot bodies or cloned human and/or other animal templates for some occasional fun in the real world.MC Etcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15561113882604526611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12497746.post-1157642070001696582006-09-07T11:14:00.000-04:002006-09-07T11:14:00.000-04:00---From OzzyC---I think everyone would theoretical...---From OzzyC---<BR/>I think everyone would <I>theoretically</I> stay in the real world.

The Matrix and the machine designers expected us to act like them, like machines, but we can't live without choice...thus Neo was created (as he can choose to do with the matrix as he see's fit) to 'balance the equation'.<BR/><BR/>I feel a new post coming on...Pauliushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01709405037488442948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12497746.post-1157626869192631082006-09-07T07:01:00.000-04:002006-09-07T07:01:00.000-04:00Real World.

We would think we could but the program would dictate otherwise.<BR/><BR/>Now, in the real world we can do whatever we want and there is free choice involved. Even if that free choice has negative outcomes.<BR/><BR/>Here's a Matrix problem that always confounded me. When they built the matrix, you would think they would have programed all evil and bad choices out of it. As if the people would have known any different. It was a program after all and they could only live what they were programed to do.misty harleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03150936651368662499noreply@blogger.com
