I have finaly solved the ever popular solipsism? matrix theory and life being all one big illusion. ITS WRONG!

Question

i think it is one of the most depressing, frightening and stupidest theories i have ever heard. please correct me if i am wrong.
here are my theories:

1. if this was all an illusion created either by you or something else then obviousley its an ingenious and incredibly detailed and constructed illusion, and it would have been created in a way that would not have allowed you to recognize it as an illusion because that would have defeated the whole reason for creating it in the first place.

2. language. if it is all an illusion then how is there a language. the illusion is all representations of yourself. therefore a language wouldnt have been necessary cause you would have been able to communicate telepathicaly but language proves that it is proof that you had to have created a language in order to communicate with another mind.

3. also if it was an illusion then what would be the point?? Especially since you DIE. The illusion finaly ends. And for what purpose? If you created the illusion then you would be god. You would have created life for other people not some artificial reality for yourself. It wouldn’t serve a purpose. And if the illusion was created for you by some creator. Then why would it create an illusion for you ONLY. Life is all about relationships love and growing from them so if the creator could create you then why wouldn’t he create other minds to coexist alongside with you instead of making fake ones that you recognize as fake? The point is: either your god, or there is a godthat would not create only you. Either way you would have made everything real.

Answer 1

MMm yes but by trying to prove it wrong you are at the same time proving there is not a Matrix, which is what the computers would want. They try to stop those who cause rebellion.

I dont believe there is a Matrix, it was just a great movie. if there is and Im wrong, please come and save me from it..like now! I believe there's two sides to everything including a arguement so Ill just tell you why people believe there is a Matrix.

1) Any illusion used to create a world for each person: It has to be great to be able to adapt and change with that person's experiences. There are glitches in the Matrix though. People can bend and break the rules of their own illusion once they learn how. See: Uploading the helicopter program.
2) Language is like a file or code surrounded by a barrier. You need to know another code or password to get past a barrier right? Yet you need to realize that the file exists in the first place, like telepathy in the Matrix. It doesnt exist in the human world though, so humans dont search for it in the illusion created. Im trying to learn Spanish but sometimes the barrier is harder for some people to get past then others.
3) The illusion was so humans could be preoccupied to be used as power sources to be used by the computers. Even in death, the human amino acids were used to create new humans who would be plugged in. Also, the illusion is the world, but the people in them are real. if you die in the Matrix, you die in real life so to say. Illusions can be created by computers, it wouldnt make them God though(because I think he cares about people). Video games and movies give you a reality you can escape. Yet for some people, they are stuck in believing its real heh.

PS: if you seen Naruto before, the ninja skill Genjutsu is used to create illusions. When people are stuck in them, their world is altered by the illusions while they remain standing still. They need to either cause physical pain to escape the fear or illusion, or someone to use their chakra to disperse the effect. This is similiar to the effect of someone taking a red pill to escape their illusion and go back to their own reality.

Answer 2

1) Statement 1 is relatively true. Illusions are made to keep people from seeing things. See: being used as a battery to allow a robotic civilization to function.

2) If humans have set rules that are not voluntary, e.g. "You can't communicate telepathically," they tend to follow them. Using your reference of The Matrix, most of the humans were led to believe that they were living a normal life. Normal people speak to one another to communicate. Since the computer program that they lived in did not allow for telepathy (without knowing that your rules can be bent or outright broken) people needed to speak to communicate.

3) The point of the illusion in The Matrix was to keep the humans from rebelling against being used as batteries to keep their robo-masters running. You wouldn't want to be a battery, would you? In making humanity captives, the robots had to come up with a way to placate humans. In giving them normal lives and controlling them from birth, they did so. They were born, lived, breathed, ate, got drunk, got sick, died, et cetera all as normal humans did, within The Matrix. A normal person never actually opened their eyes and saw reality, because they were so preoccupied with their Matrix life, which they believed to be real.

Are you starting to question your own reality? Take the red pill.

Answer 3

Nope

Answer 4

You need not give solipsism any validity by your refutation, as it is an incoherent philosophy that is refuted every time we use the normal understanding between humans that presupposes reality; language.

Answer 5

It has taken you this long to figure it out? Forgive me if I am being rude, but of course!

This theory is extremely selfish and self-centered. To believe it... would make you both those and more. I cannot believe you just now figured this out. I hope you knew this all along.
