Life: The Pre-Programmed Design

reply to post by The Endtime Warrior


Thing is my friend is that a creator with the power to create such a program or construct as our life could do what he wanted, we could simply be a social experiment for all we know...

Again, our inner you could simply be a programmed response, ask yourself how you know that you are real. Unless someone was prepared to willingly kill themself to find out what happens we will never know.

Maybe our "life" program has artificial intelligence and as such that's how our reality pans out, but it's still a program running on pre-defined rules i.e. disease as an example, we are under the illusion that we can control our life and some of other believe that life is ruled by fate, the fact of the matter is that when we look closely neither two rules can exist at the same time.

We are under the impression in one instance that life is random, however it could be argued that life is pseudo-random and then on the other hand we believe we create our lives but look at people who never had good luck or never make it, see the paradox?

As I said in my OP, why do some people drink ale everyday and live till 90 but others die after a few years?

Randomness or pseudo randomness?

Agreed. Who's to say? In my eyes, this is highly improbable. Certainly I am entitled to make that assessment for myself.

Good point, in fact before reading the 2nd sentence, I was already going to reply that suicide would be the only solution for that. I base that off of my first presumption, in that it is highly improbable that we are an "experiment".

Another great observation. As a solipsist this was something I was able to use to pull myself out of the "hole".
have you ever read my philosophy thread?
The Last Philosophy...

Of course I do. There are some things that humans cannot conceptualize but it is you who puts yourself in the box. Allow yourself a little more creative thinking here, and I think you can come to a much better answer.

In a word....genetics.

Randomness or pseudo randomness?

In what sense? Maybe certain things are but certainly not everything.

I'll read your thread, can't comment much more as we seem to be on the same page however I'd say that your answer to the "drinkers problem" i.e. genetics, seems like a brilliant program or a programs sub routine to me!

Don't get me wrong, I'm not arguing that I know this hypothesis to be true, I'm simply throwing out a thought experiment regaring the analogies between life and a computer program, I'm glad you understand what I'm saying though and you've given some brilliant responses

Genetics is in fact a type of "program" Its been shown to be some type of code, as far as I am aware.
Thanks for the complement!

I read a weird thread here from 2008 and it reminded me of this one.

It was the Hidden-Hand thread, he was 'disclosing' his part in the Illuminati & their beliefs.. supposedly. I'm not sure what to make of the thread actually. He said that life was a 'game' per se, and the point was to ascend to a higher levels of consciousness.. until you are 'one with The Infinite One'

Yes I remember that post. In my opinion, this is what the elite are "told" and in actuality there is something else going on.

When you think about it, it is more than likely we are living in a holographic construct, maybe a biological computer of sorts far in advance of what we can make ourselves. After all when you think about it, for all the diversity in biology there are only so many types of humans and only so many personality types. Perhaps that is why astrology and numerology work so well, because their are certain programmes laid down with in the computer that makes us continue our lives on a pattern and our choice about what happens to us is limited. Even the random acts only occur within a predestined time frame.

I don't know whether we have individual souls or are only part of a group soul. I believe Robert Monroe and Lobsang Rampa talked about one soul maintaining control over several people born on earth at the same time, or over a period of years and being reincarnated back into the group soul. This however would still fit within the padigram of a computer and holigraphic construct.

I don't remember where I read it but some one posted a link and a story about alien cover ups and the theory was that when you die you feel impelled to go towards the light. Once you reach the light you are mindswiped and your soul gets reincarnated back on earth. There is supposed to be a barrier around the earth and it is in effect a prison planet and you cannot escape it as every time you die you are hypnotised to go towards the light and the whole scenario starts again.

I think that worst thing that could happen to anyone is that when you die you are dead, finished finito, no reincarnation no soul. If that was proved to be true would you still live your life the way you are doing now or would you change it.

Well actually I have thought about it and thats why I tend to go off of my thoughts only. with all this talk about reincarnation and the afterlife I am disinclined to believe one way or the other. Its great and all that others believe in past lives but my question is where does the deception begin and end? Were it possible that these folks could be lying to themselves in some way?
