Morpheus asked:


I love the metaphor of the Matrix. Its a modern version of Plato “analogy of the cave” from The Republic.

Lets define the cast of characters:

Neo = You

Morpheus = Me

Mr. Smith = Imams, Mullahs, Sheiks, Pastors.

The Matrix = A system of control put over by people who believe that such an environment is more advantageous for them. Neitszche essentially called them the “weak”. Undesirable or insecure people are better served by religious systems that demonize sex or appreciation of physical qualities that they dont feel like they possess.

Also, such systems help mentally weaker people “cope” with the haunting specter of mortality.

WAKE UP NEO…..WAKE UP
