Everything you know is fake

Well first off if you have a heavy faith this video might not be for you. It might offend you or your beliefs. If you have a pretty open mind.. and you were able to keep up with the Matrix plot pretty good then you might find this bit kind of interesting.

What do you guys think? It is not creepy until you actually understand it.

I've always though when people say "reality is not real" that means none of you are real right? If this is some giant computer sim then you guys are all apart of the sim *I* am experienicing. Sorta like that level in Fallout 3 with the dog and the kid right? lol. I dunno what are your thoughts?

Everything is made up of atoms....so yea nothing is real, just a reflection of light on atomic particles.

So this thread is fake.

This thread is a lie.

I'm not going to watch a 20 minute video. Mind summerying it up for us?

And hey, I could have said some things about religion but I didn't. I just gave you a warning of the content and kept my thoughts about it to myself. So I expect the same thing.

Reality has a flexible definition anyway...

I think my mind would explode if I spent too much time pondering on what is real and what is not.

The video was too boring and obvious to watch.

is this one of those things about how they dont know if we live in a universe where 1+1=2 or 1+1=3?

This video changed my life man, thankyou, i know see reality for what it really is...So does this prove there a god, that created an "unreal" world, its a bit cinusing i know, lol.

For people who are just casting this away, this video provides real scientific thinking and evidence that is widely accepted today. It's basically an indepth look at the senses and how they work to interpret our world. How sight is just something created in the brain by detecting EMR in the visible spectrum, sound just the change of pressure and vibrations in the air... etc. Basically the video is trying to enlighten you on how much extra detail your mind adds to the world. Things such as color and sound do not really exist, they are just manifestations of the brain to classify different inputs of the senses. It basically says matter and exitence in actuallity is much different then what you see, hear, or feel. That being said, our senses help as make sense of the world regardless, although fundamentally, things to do exist as we sense them.Marfoo

This sounds like a documentary for Christians.

If you actually watch it, it talks about a "Soul".

It talks about how everything is an illusion and that how everything is truly understood by your "Soul".

That was a total waste of my life watching that.

I think therefore I am as simple as that stop making your life more complicated that it already is

Before quantum theory was proposed, Issac Newton believed light is made up of small particles called corpuscules that emits fluroscense when came in contact with a physical matter. Now quanta is more or less the same thing.....

There is no source, you are the source. You are that. That's what ancient philsophers claimed after years of research "thou art that".

I was saying that the way our brain manifests it's surroundings may be a totally inaccurate way of how it physically exists. That being said that doesn't mean our senses aren't useful, it's just mind boggling to think everything could exist in a really abstract manner from how we interpret it. Our senses are the best interpretation we have of the world and is very useful to us as is. Lol, why are you making points to me? Maybe I misworded when I said "Things such as color and sound do not really exist...", I should've said "The senses may be inaccurate representations of the physical existence of objects" That being said we sense them in such a way so we can categorize them, decide which are useful, and have them presented to us in a meaningful manner, that's the beauty of the brain.Marfoo

[QUOTE="Marfoo"][QUOTE="MetallicaKings"] yes, we can say thats true. but there is no evidence at all that they are "inaccurate representations...etc". There is just as much evidence that we live in the matrix and robots are harvesting our bodiesJunkyMcMuffin

:Pontetial this more like a dog fight not more not less well atleast the ideas are neat but I really like the god disccustion really bring out the flavor of thing lol

There is one scientific theory that says the universe is just a holographic projection of something or another. Like I said, it's the thought that our senses could be presenting us a reality that is representative but drastically different from the physical world. It's the thought that counts. To think that color and sound are products of the mind is mind boggling on its own. (those two are pretty much undisputed)Marfoo

[QUOTE="RockysCatnipCo"][QUOTE="JunkyMcMuffin"] How can sound be a product of the mind? If im at the beach, and im looking away from the water, how does my brain know to regester the sound of the waves, if the waves weren't making sound?, and the universe is just aholographic projection of something or another? So this book on my desk is just a holographic projection of something my brain wants to see?, and when my hands go to touch this "projection", I also somehow manage to make it manafest into physical form where I can hold it? Damn, if I can do all of this why can't I fly, or shoot fireballs out my a$$? This **** is getting pretty out-there.

Also, what I don't understand is how all of our senses mesh so perfectly together. If matter is just an illusion, that disproves everything that science has showed us about how those senses work. It just doesn't seem plausible. How are all these things able to be proven with factual evidence? And I'm not sure of the entire argument of the video, as I didn't watch the second half; but in similar arguments, it is stated that our perception of reality is just a figment of our imagination. If our brain is creating all of this, then why can't anything be possible? If we can exist in this universe then why does our perception of it have to be different? Blah! Brain poop.

Well, there are changes in air pressure that stimulate cells in your ear. These cells generate varying electrical impulses that are sent to your brain. Depending on your their nature your brain makes you "hear" some sound. We've grown up to associate sounds with many different things, like waves. From a physical world observation though, sound is something that occurs only in the brain, a product of the brain. In a physical sense, there is just a slight change in pressure and vibrations in the air as a result of moving water. Sound is just a complex classification system our brains created to help us differntiate information gathered from pressure changes and vibrations in the air. Did that make sense?Marfoo
