    What do you think the future will be like if we keep our current heading? Could it be a Terminator story line that moves us into a Matrix reality. or Lost in Space or Star Track (or Galaxy Quest) story line or are we in a Star Wars story and don't know it yet. Star Wars would be nice but I think it will be more like the movie 1984

                                :omg: Plan 9: Zombies meet Sci-Fi in California. Soylent Green - now that's a blast from my personal past, and actually one of my husband's oft-quoted flicks. And how can you not like a movie with Charleton Heston and Chuck Conners set in the future, even if "Soylent Green is people"?

                                    Does that make Iraq The Fields of the Nephilim?

                                      Because if we were, the system would not allow us to become aware of the possibility.

                                          What do you think the future will be like if we keep our current heading? Could it be a Terminator story line that moves us into a Matrix reality. or Lost in Space or Star Track (or Galaxy Quest) story line or are we in a Star Wars story and don't know it yet. Star Wars would be nice but I think it will be more like the movie 1984

                                          My vote is for the Thirteenth floor[^]. Where virtual reality becomes a plaything to do the crimes you can't in the real-world. All the crimes get perpetrated on virtual characters rather than real ones. Have your cake and eat it too for the criminally insane. :rolleyes:
