dear friends,
click the link if you can't proceed to page 2. http://www.channel4.com/science/micr...arewereal.html link to youtube videos. you may have to copy and paste some of the links. part i; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38qk7pe_doq part ii; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stx4n...elated&search= part iii; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w3d1...elated&search= part iv; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fplhe...elated&search= part v; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijf6s...elated&search= be well, be love. david are we real? 1. the question posed 2. god’s or nature's laws? 3. too fine-tuned for chance 4. multiverse 5. intelligence – ours and others’ 6. the matrix in a multiverse 1. the question posed all life on earth is nothing more than an elaborate facade created by super-intelligent beings. humans now exist in a computerized version of the world – a simulation that keeps us happy, while our powers are drained by our creators for use as fuel in their campaign for dominance in the ‘real’ world. this is the premise of the cult sci-fi thriller the matrix. ‘the simulation hypothesis, that we are currently living in a computer simulation, should be understood literally, it’s not just in a metaphorical sense whereby one could view the universe as a simulation, but literally we would be living in a simulation created by some advanced civilization in a computer they built in their universe. and everything we see and our brains themselves would just be parts of this simulation.’ oxford university philosopher dr nick bostrom echoes the thoughts of sci-fi writers and scientists alike. the simulation hypothesis is not sci-fi, it’s serious academic thought. in are we real? martin rees navigates the extraordinary territory between science fact and science fiction. he reveals the logical steps that have led cosmologists and philosophers to the shocking conclusion that the matrix scenario cannot be safely relegated to our storybooks. whether it’s true or not, and it might be, here is a story that is altogether more serious and more deeply disturbing than any sci-fi fantasy could ever be. cosmologist professor max tegmark from the massachusetts institute of technology warns us that ‘we humans have undergone a series of demotions, a series of blows to our ego.’ prepare yourself for another. |

interesting videos and theories. i think the videos painted a picture somewhat bleak....i mean if there is some advanced civilization that created us in a stimulation then really we have no soul and there is no such thing as enlightment or afterlife....it is a theory though. and what created the first creators.....what if life is just multidimensional??? forever? i read on some website that when ascension happens half of the people on earth will move to the spirtual plane and half will move to the technological plane or something like that. so basically we are just a test....

maybe i understood the video wrong...i hate watching movies or programs on youtube or the computer. i got confused along the way because i wasn't comefortable....so basically they are saying that we might be holograms....which to me means we have no souls.....and basically are a computer stimulation....or i might have misunderstood sorry, then some other physicist said that everything leads back to a creator. they all so mentioned aliens or superadvanced race of entities that made us up in the stimulation.that basically means we are but a program on souless indivduals. but everything leads back to a creator what created the super intelligent race and maybe they made our race to see how they became about.....crazy stuff the next 10-15 years is going to be huge
