Wasn't it Neil Armstrong that said reality has many protective layers guarding the truth?
Sometimes I fear that there's no universal justice and that anything goes. In a universe like that, we're all homeless and void. Maybe that's what we're. It's frightening to think.

One things for certain: if the OP didn't use The Matrix to endorse his Christianity, he wouldn't have gotten so many flags.

You peel back one layer that has the republicans and democrats battling each other...
You pull back another that has powerful people influencing world affairs...
You remove another that has religious leaders and sacred texts leading the blind...
And on and on...
Where does it end, if ever, and is this just a wild goose chase?
Maybe nobody knows and maybe no truth has been uncovered. We're all blind.
My feeling right now is there's only one way out and that's to die, but it's a big choice. And since I can't back it up with irrefutable evidence then it's speculation and even dangerous to say.
But... I see myself in a fly that's trapped in a spider's web. I see myself in the spider when I move it a place away from where we walk. I see myself in the crows and pigeons. I see myself in all the animals. I tell them that we're all struggling, we're all searching. But it doesn't stop anything bad from happening. I know that I am just one human in a long lineage of humans. And I think there're other humans in the universe. And other higher intelligences. I think we're just like the animals and bugs we see on earth when things are put into perspective. There're much higher forms of civilization.

It is the Womb of the Great Mystery, the Secret Cavern of the Stone in Alchemical terms, some call it Mother or the Origin of All. She belongs to the Great Mystery. She is that out of which the Matrix and its Matrices ever emanates and returns. She transcends the night and day yet they have issued forth from her waters and are not seperate. She is a mystery and none can truly describe her.
