But we weren't programmed not to figure out. Our programmer made us think logically, and logically we're not computer programs. No one can really come to self-realization, because they cannot prove that they are what they think they are, and we cannot accept something without rationalizing it...whoever programmed us must be a real genius.popdafoo said:I would think not because chances are we were programmed not to figure out that we were computer programs so if we come to a self-realization and find out what we really are then that would contradict the programming. Notice that no Sims seem to notice that they are computer programs. That's because they were programmed not to know. Unless we were purposely programmed to figure out what we really are which is very unlikely.

Movies don't have to be realistic. Neither do games. No one said the Matrix was logical. It is merely constructed to be a great big mindscrew, with Gnostic and Zen influences for spice rather than true depth. I liked it for the action.runtheplacered said:Said the guy with the Matrix stuff going on in his avatar.Silva said:That is the stupidest logic I've ever heard.
