Question

Agent Smith accuses mankind of being a virus; an uncontrollable disease on earth. He suggests that he is the cure for the virus that Neo represents. Is there some truth to this point of view?

Answer 1

I honestly believe we &quot;modernized&quot; people are.  We take over and consume every resource until it is gone.  Unfortunately our motivating agent is based on greed, money, and power.  

Unlike the &quot;3rd world countries&quot; we labeled--they can live in harmony with their surroundings, we cannot.  We have to have the best of the best at all times...constantly outdoing one another to be the top dog.  

I remember not having a cell phone and being perfectly fine, I remember having no a/c and lived fine (I&#039;m in Florida), I remember having pasta for dinner almost every night and no one complained about carbs, I remember playing outside unsupervised for HOURS until dark, and we all made it home safe.  I remember using a computer for the first time in 1992.  And to think I was born in 1981.  I wasn&#039;t a 40&#039;s, 50&#039;s, 60&#039;s, or 70&#039;s child.

Our values have been erradicated.  There is no faith in anything, and we only worship wealth.  Simple is better I believe.  But this is only based on my opinion.  I do have faith that we will regress to better times when your word was your bond.  Until then I can only try to influence as best I can, and hope others will do the same.
