  • What is more important reality or the preception of reality? A more relivant speach has never been spoken.

  • I look at it this way: reality is "what is"....case in point:  A person on LSD thinks they can fly...so they jump off the roof. Their perception is that they CAN fly....but the reality is they hit the pavement......HARD.

    reality is reality.

    perception is NOT reality, it never was, but many people benefit from obscuring the line btwn reality and fiction.

  • Every time i watch the server room conversation and hear that music in the background, for some reason i always shed a side tear. Maybe cuz it makes so much sense.

  • @avth76 People's perception of reality actually changes reality Cos: Pepl THINKa bank might b financially shaky Bish: People start 2withdraw their money Cos: Pretty soon it IS financially shaky Bish: You can make banks fail Cos: Bzzt. I've already done that. Maybe u've heard about a few? Think biggr Bish: Stock mkt? Cos: Yes Bish: Currency mkt? Cos: Yes Bish: Commodities mkt? Cos: Yes Bish: Sm countries? Destroy all records of ownership Th whole damn system No more rich No more poor
  • @avth76 but if someone hits the ground after trying to fly and feels the pain and acknowledge that pain as part of their sensory perception then it becomes part of their reality.

    Both proof and deception are ways of changing people's perceptions and their realities but proof brings those realities together whereas deception allows for separations where bad shit can happen...

    That's how i'd see it... but still... same problems!
