Red Pill or Blue Pill?

Alright so these next three blog post are going to be a little different in that I will be covering a movie trilogy. If you didn't guess by the title of this blog, I will covering the Matrix trilogy doing one movie at a time starting with the first one, The Matrix. I assume most people have seen this movie or have heard enough about it that they what is going on but just to be safe I will give you a general summary of The Matrix.

The movie revolves around Neo or Mr. Anderson according to agent smith but that is not really important, what is, is the fact that Neo is "the one". The chosen guy who is going to save all the remaining people that are left on earth. People built machines that were going to help them live but as soon as machines started to gain the ability to think they turned on the humans and started war against them. Now people have retreated underground using large sewer and railroad tunnels to travel around and live in. In order for the machines to keep going they need power, so they use humans for energy, absorbing their energy as they are plugged into the matrix, an alternate reality made by the machines. This matrix amounts to what we live here on earth with everything going like it always has before the machines took over. Neo is eventually brought out of this dream world and brought out to real life where he then can go back into the Matrix only now he has all the freedom that his mind can come up with. He can stop bullets just by thinking about it and he can fly, etc... Just watch the movie if you have not already it is going to make a lot more sense than me trying to briefly describe it.

The thing I want to get into is choice that Neo has to take near thee beginning of the movie. Morpheus, the guy who "sets neo free" gives Neo a choice to take a red pill or a blue pill. The blue pill will make it so that the next morning Neo will wake up believing that all the events with Morpheus were just a dream. If he takes the red pill though Morpheus explains that Neo will stay in wonderland and Neo will be shown just how far the rabbit hole goes.  Basically Neo will be set free and from there Neo will be shown the truth of what the human world is really like. Neo will then be shown that when plugged back into the matrix knowing that he is not attached to it, he can do what he wants, like I mentioned before, stop bullets, fly, etc....

This is going to end very short because I want you to think on this until my next post comes out. Lets say you are given two pills just like Neo, the blue one will keep you where are, just playing church, just going through the motions. If you take the red pill though, God will open his doors for you and you will be able to see just how far the powers of God can go. The choice is your to make now, the choice is for you to think about. Do you want the blue pill or the red pill?

I will post another blog on the second movie and it will go more into what to do when you make that choice assuming you choose to take the red pill. I also do suggest watching The Matrix but be forewarned of the violence and language.
