Perception altered in 108 minutes or your money back. Mind-blowing mandatory.

A couple weeks back I saw a movie called What the #$*! Do We Know?. I may have mentioned it. Blew my mind then. Blows my mind now. And I haven't even been back to see it a second time, though that's certainly a plan for the immediate future.

The premise of the movie is laid out in the title - What the fuck do we know, anyway? How much of reality can you say is real? How much of experience can you say you've experienced? Given the immense and driving force of our abstract brains, why are we so reliant on physical objects for understanding? Especially when quantum theory is telling us that the physical objects may not be there at all?

I'm not talking The Matrix here, folks. That was child's play.

Perhaps the single most bizarre/enlightening thing to come out of What is it at once strengthened my agnosticism (bordering on atheism) and gave me a true sense of divinity.

( And awaaaaay we go. )

Obsessive

Signs that you're enjoying liz_marcs's fic "Living History" far too much?

You ask somebody where the "futch" something is.
