  • Actually sound vibrations travel through the flesh and bone of our heads into our brain, so the brain does get bathed in sound vibration, same thing would apply to a force acting on the body which causes it, and in turn the brain, to move.

  • Your profile name admits of a problem. Just sayin'. Advocate Islam?  Why?

  • To believe in a God Who is absolutely Wise and Powerful. There is no problem in such faith. If it is unacceptable, then the blue pill is equally unacceptable (the blue pill can be taken only as a matter of faith).

    As we are doomed to be faithful either in the blue pill or in God, we may judge both the faiths rationally and pragmatically.

  • @monem749 but belief in the blue pill never initiated a war nor was cause for any act of of terror

  • @iscooliscool.

    It was not Moses who initiated war, rather it was Pharaoh.

    It was not Jesus who initiated war, rather it was the Romans.

    It was not Muhammad who initiated war, rather it was Abu Jahl.

    What was Hitler? Who were the leaders during colonial period? Who rush for gold and diamond with guns?

  • Hey, the postulate that we cannot perceive anything beyond our senses belongs to the Immanuel Kant.

    So we can choose:

    a/ The blue pill - to believe that what we perceive with our senses is actually real and to try to explore the world via scientific methods.

    b/ To take the red pill and to say that everything perceived by our senses is an a illusion. And maybe to accept that we live inside of giant computer simulation called the Matrix witch is not more different than what most holy books say.

  • This documentary does a good job discussing the philosophical implications of sensory psychology for someone who has never given it a thought.

    However, some of the biology is way oversimplified, particularly where vision occurs in the brain.

  • I'll explain. The documentary claims that vision occurs in a small area in the back of the head. This is true but it's far from the only area of vision. The area that the documentary is talking about is called V1 in neurology and the only thing it deals with is light and dark. There are other areas that deal with color, object recognition, motion perception, etc. In addition to areas specifically for seeing faces and biological motion. You see with about 30% of your brain.

  • Actually that's a little oversimplified too...V1 deals with early color work and orientation as well.

    The brain is very complicated.

  • very interesting. this makes the world seem like an allusion. as if i'm dreaming everything.
