Briefly I would like to put a question forth followed by a couple of scenarios to credit such level of conceptual thoughts, what if our existence as we believe it to be was based on a lie? If everything we felt wasn't actually there but scripted for us to have similar imaginations and perceptions, if objects didn't really exist in texture, shape, size, weight and flow in random or conscious synchronized motion? What if we where made to believe we touch objects but in reality all we do is feel around nothing and the receptors our body and minds are equipped with are like processors stitching emotions together in real time?
We taste food differently, we have a different interpretation of sound and the only ever real statistical data always comes from "machines" we "built".
What if we don't actually travel but move our consciousness, and our arrival at destinations is nothing more than transferring our state or changing our views from one notion of being here to another of being somewhere else.

The Matrix for instance as a movie of reference adapts the concept behind being plugged in and ones imagination becomes as flexible as possible...That's one way to put it, but instead of a sequence of binary codes there is a much more limitless array of shall I say " programming languages " that comes with certain flexible applications and rules that governs them.
Religion, race, family, war, emotions, could be basic concepts to root one in activities and blind one from the endless cycle of nothingness.
Some may ask if self awareness ever comes to light...well at basic stages maybe as the parameters of one's "being" restricts diving too deep or results in ending up with inconclusive results...Its all a "what if" concept.
What's your take on this?
