The whole Matrix Idea though is extreemly far fetched. Heres my reasoning why...


It takes a supercomputer 1000 years to gather the amount of information that our eyes alone gather in the course of one second. Computers in this day and age, for how intelligent they may seem, are still far from being anywhere close to matching a human. We are a lot more advanced than we realize on a biological level.

A nicer Question to ask would be what color would the sky be if the percentages of our air content changed. Currently 21% is Oxygen, 72% is Nitrogen, and the rest is miscilaneous. What if it wasnt 72% Nitrogen, but perhaps 72% Tetrechloride?

we would most likely die.

I didn't ask how it would affect us. God we'd all die if there were no nitrogen in the air, I was just wondering how the Atmospheric elements/molecules, affect the coloring of our sky, the only factor i know of so far to affect the coloring, is the thickness of the air as light travels through it.

It would probably be darker, but I don't know what shade.

I don't know if reality is truly real. If our brains are so complex, this all could just as well be only a dream that I'm having. There's no way we can know if anything else is real. When we say "I'm real", then another person can't even know it. I know for a fact that my consciousness is here. I know that I am real, and I believe that you all are real. But how can any of you know that there actually is a "Raven" somewhere out there, or if you just imagined these words on the screen?

But if you were really there typing that, then you are real.

Well. this world is far to complex for one to be simply dreaming it, and if it were "computer driven" then it would have to be Many vast years beyond the level which we are currently experiencing.

Now if one wishes to go into a Religious perspective, one could be in a "god(s)- controlled-state-of-existance" where when one finally dies in this plane, they reawaken in the "Real" plane of existance in which life may be eternal, for better or worse.

But we don't understand everything about the brain yet. Perhaps it IS complex enough.

But what if a person DID create the universe, and was the only thing to really exist? Sort of like the religious idea you had.

The theory of the big bang is that a giant collection of matter was compressed and then exploded all across the uviverse. We know that all mater had to come from somewhere and that it didnt just appear. I want to know what was there before the big bang? Perhaps an advaced civilazation who were locked in an intergalactic war and due to an advaced nucular weapon kinda pressed the "reset" button on the universe.

Your Half right...Matter can't come from nothing, BUT, the mass of objects increases as the object approaces the speed of light. E=mc^2. The apperant mass of the moving object from the relatively still viewer increases. Light has no mass, BUT is bends with gravity because when travveling at light speed it does give itself an appearant mass to all outside sources.

But, matter can neither be created nor destroyed. So all of that stuff had to have come from somewhere.

In Nuclear Reactions Matter is either Destroyed or created, which is why the reactions can occur. What you ment to say is that Mass-Energy is constant, so long as the universe is finite. If the universe is not curved then it is infinite, and thusly matter/energy would not be at a possible constant. Isn't Physics just fun....btw I am Majoring i Physics in college.
