It's like ripples in water. If you create one small ripple it will continue to grow, and if you create several they will react with each other and change.

Using the example of The Matrix, within it everything is spontaneous, people are controlled to a certain extent but as long as they stay within certain boundaries then they are OK. It is the small percent of people who think differently that want to change the world, that want to get out and be free. They are the ones that show how unpredictable we can be, and even within the matrix the oracle can apparently see the future, but can't see everything, as there is no certainty, nothing is fixed, nothing is stable.


I think that the theory Adrian mentioned is good about every variable createing a new universe, like in the film Sliding Doors, which shows how one little thing can change the course of your entire life.

I suppose no-one will ever know though.
Yup but remember the matrix is only a film . This was the view i was putting across at work today when it came to debating religion i asked if tomorrow existed yet...they all said it wasnt possible which means its got to be created which means it needs a creator with that knowlage aka god. I won the argument at work :P

The Matrix is just pretty basic philosophy principles that actually made me cringe at points as to what it was getting at.

As for tomorrow. cause and effect... check out some stuff by David Hume if you're really into it.

Yup apparently the matrix is riddled with biblical statments but i aint watched it since i became a christain to know.

The tomorrow thing i dont care what the author thinks lol im trying to start a debate on the board. And weather tomorrow exists yet is something were all bount to have a opinion on . Mines is it doesnt yet its created as time moves on by god.

Well I believe he didn't bring the world to its exsistence, and for sure he ain't gonna end it either. Science, my friends, science.

Science is as much a faith as religion is. I looked at both and decided that god must exist was around the same time a read the laugh that is the big bang theory lol.

Yes, but science's faith is based on things men found out (or believe to have found out) whilst religion's faith is based... well on faith - without questioning much.

If it did exist it would be a preetty dangerous thing to find out.
first of all, would you really want to see what's waiting for you tomorrow and take away the magic of free will.
And if you could find out the consecuences to an decision you are gonna make in the future? how much of it would change if you made a different desecion?
how many paradox are there in this topic??
