matrix essay

I believe that the world we live in is not matrix because the people we have today are all given birth by human parents. None of us were given birth by something called pink goo which is hanging in the air, filled with fluid and be able to control by computer systems. But we have something like a glass tube that can give birth to human just like a human mother can do. You just need to use scientific methods to combine the sperms aka DNAs from the parents. If they have that technology growing bigger and better, our world will be matrix in the future because science and computers will control the humans even before the birth. If there is matrix exists, I’m sure that people in the future will have no religion. Because almost all the religions said god created human except Buddha as far as I know. Buddha didn’t answer that question. As for me, I’m a Buddhist person and most of the people says that religion blinds you. But I don’t think it’s true because I didn’t ever feel anything blinds me. I’ m still willing to see and learn about other religions. If the matrix does exist, there are no gods and no religions. In religious way, I believe that Buddha exists. So, the matrix doesn’t exist to me. In Matrix, Neo believed that everything he believed was not real. There is a real great quote from Nixon that “Can we really make sense of the idea of a person who has beliefs but these beliefs are all or almost all false? If the answer is no, then ultimately we will not be able to make sense of stories like The Matrix (or at least my version with increased maliciousness from the computers) that involve people whose beliefs are almost all false”(37). You can’t seriously tell me that you believe in a person who said that almost everything he believes is wrong.
I have one more serious question. Does human created computer system or computers created everything we have today including ourselves. In Matrix, nothing is real that you believe right now. So, does u believe that sun, moon, earth and the universe exists? I think all of us believe all of them exist in religious way, scientific way or anyway you can think of. I don’t think the human being, sun, moon, earth and universe are not programmable. If you believe the matrix exists, please tell me who programmed the universe.
One last thing, let’s say one your great grandparents died last year and you were there. You saw that he/she was dead. If you believe in matrix, what you saw and believed was wrong. Are you going to tell me that one of great grandparents didn’t really die? You saw it and you felt it. So, what I mean is matrix doesn’t exist in our world.
