what is the matrix???

One time or another our minds have wandered to as what purpose we have on this earth. Naturally we want to know what we're doing here and where we are going. With this in mind, many religions and beliefs have been formed. In more logic terms, philosophers have studied this mentality. Socrates came up with a theory that we live in a cave and can only see the 'real world' as an illusion outside our current dwelling. The matrix has a very similar concept in which Neo(the main character) lives in an artificial world that has been programed. He has been taken into the real world and decides to destroy the matrix. I honestley disagree with these ideas because I believe that we are living in the real world. We only have one life to live but I also believe that there is another life after we die. I believe that our bodies are just vehicles and the one that is guiding that vehicle is our soul. That soul will be the one to inherit another life. My beliefs are spiritual and everyone has diffrent ideas. The conception of the matrix and socrates cave is very intresting and an affecting viewpoint.
