Dr. J asks: The Blue Pill or the Red Pill?

[Dr. Smith]

Neo has a choice: To take the blue pill and stay in his current
existence or take the red pill and see "how far down the rabbit hole
goes". Think about your own life. Which choice would you make and why?
Would you choose to stay in the world of "stuff" or dive recklessly
into the world of knowledge and rebellion?

[zaiba akhtar]

If I needed to make a choice between the red or the blue pill than i
would definitely be choosing the red pill.Because every human being in
this world does have an anxiety to know how the other planet are.Are
they same as the earth or not.Like them I have also some innumerable
questions hidden as desire in my heart.Going to a new world like the
matrix is dangerous because you can't be sure that whether you are
going to get back to this world safely or going ot hurt yourself badly
or to get lost their in between the lights.I would really want to
visit a scientific world and to feel the technology and devices.

[Stephany]

Although I take my time and sometimes have a hard time accepting the
truth and what is in front of me, I would have made the same choice
Neo makes in the movie 'The Matrix'. The reason I would take the red
pill is because I would hate to live in a lie. I very much dislike
lies which is why i rather face the truth. Learning the truth is about
acceptance no matter how long it takes because I like to revolve my
life around the truth instead of being dellusional. I recently was so
use to someone being in my life but who is no longer in it now, when i
am asked if they are still in my life, I reply with a yes and realize
it is a lie and that I have to learn not to get too use to an illusion
because althought YOU, YOURSELF accept something, it is your mind who
needs time.

[roli...@aim.com]

my choice would be the red pill because is better to know the truth no
matter how weird or crazy it looks at the begining it
the true and im going to get use to it or i maybe be like cyper and do
whterver it take to go back to the lie.

Yeah, but the truth can drive people crazy! it almost kills Neo and
then he still doesn't want to accept it. Doe we REALLY want the truth?

[Doctor X]

Jessep (Jack Nicholson) pointed out in a Few Good Men that people cannot handle really hard, nasty truths. Is that what we think happens if we take the red pill? Or do we become enlightened in the good sense? (as in Buddha-like?)

[blacha...@yahoo.com]

I agree with Dr. X when she wrties "people cannot handle really hard, nasty truths."

If it was my choice I would pick the blue pill. I would not like to live in what Morpheus calls the "desert of real".

I wouldn't want to end up like Cypher regreting my decision of taking the red pill.

[linda]

If i needed to make a choice between the red pill or the blue pill i would pick the red pill.
I would choose the red pill because although people dont accept the truth very well it is always good to know.
I rather know the truth and let it hurt me than be fooled by a "fake" life. Everyday would be a lie. Everyone around you would be fake.

[jihyun oh]

If I were given choices between the blue pill and the red pill, I would choose the red pill because I don't want to be deceived by people who I know or things that is unreal. I think there is no meaningful life if you live in the world with not knowing what the truth is because in the world like Matrix, everything about life is phony, but we, people, eventually have a desire to the reality like Neo.

[Diana]

If I had a choice to take the red pill or the blue pill I would take the RED pill because I would want to know the truth no matter what it is and how much it will hurt. I had a good friend that kept lying to me about things all I wanted was the truth no matter what it was. 

[jihyun oh]

I think knowing the truth is really important for all of us because sometimes it helps us to understand the circumstances or situations better no matter how bad or good they are. Also, people have the right to be informed or told what the truth is if it is relevent to them even though it drives them crazy or sad so that they can face it and prepare the next movement.  

[Spicy Mama!!]

Are you sure that you can handle the truth?

[lisa lyttleton]

If i had a choice take the blue or red pill i would choose the red pills because i wouldnt wanna be in a world that is not true.i would not wanna live in a world that everybody around  is lyng.

[Spicy Mama!!]

are you sure you can handle the truth??

[blacha...@yahoo.com]

Taking the red pill gives you the whole truth. But what happens once you learn it and can't find yourself in it? You have to remember that once you leave the "Matrix" or "Cave" you are no longer welcome back. 

[Spicy Mama!!]

are you sure you can handle the truth???

[clh...@yahoo.com]

I think I would choice the blue, because I would like to be in control of my life situations. Being able to come and go as I please, rather it’s my kids or husband I fell like I always have to answer to someone. Walk thru wall instead of having to open doors, I’m always miss placing my keys and being locked of somewhere or something. And best one there far is leaping buildings, would cut out high paying gas prices for me, air pollution, and traffic, these are all the things that annoy me.

 

[Spicy Mama!!]

i <3 little blue pills!

[Smokie]

If I had the opportunity to choose I would take the red pill. I would like to be told the truth. Once you know the truth you will be able to understand where your life is headed. If you live your life not knowing the truth your whole life is useless. You can try and try to succeed but it will always fail because your surroundings are not true. I would want to be told the truth because time is not wasted. I had an experience were a person wanted to do business pertaining to music. He wasted my time because the really was not knowledgeable in recording music. If he had mentioned the truth from the beginning I probably would still do business with him do to the fact that he was honest.

[Spicy Mama!!]

How do you that "the truth" really is THE TRUTH??

[Smokie]

True...Whats the point in living fake

[Jorge Gutierrez]

I would defintely select the Red Pill because I would want to know what is on the other side of the fence. What else is out there besides the current life I live. Being the person that I am, very adventurous and curious I can relate with Neyo's thought process when he had to decide because he was curious and wanted to explore the truth behind the Red Pill. He was seeking something but just did not know what it was. In my world and my experiences, I am faced with decisions daily such as should i go to school today, should i go to work today, etc. My need to know things that are difficult to understand creates a sense of urgency to find out;sort of what Neyo felt when he was confronted by Morpheus with this question.         

 

[Doctor X]

I agree with you. Taking the red pill is risky because you do not know what life you are going to have, really. In The Matrix, the rebels life in a real nasty world with bad food, bad clothing, and bad plumming.

[Smokie]

Lies,Lies,Lies it will never end

[Spicy Mama!!]

Can you handle the truth?? How would you know that "the truth" is really "THE TRUTH"??

[Spicy Mama!!]

how do you know**8

[Joauciño]

My choice would be the blue pill. cause I want to live in peace, not in conflict trying to save the day.

[linda]

& live in a lie?

[Spicy Mama!!]

What are you afraid of?? What does PEACE mean to you??

The truth can be told only and if you take the red pill. And since im curious and my name is Jorge, im willing to find out!

[Spicy Mama!!]

How would you know that - THAT would actually be the truth??

[blacha...@yahoo.com]

[Joauciño]

no comment....

[Jenniffer]

If I have the possibility to know the answer of the thing that is disturbing me for my entire life through a red pill, I won't hesitate to take it and experience the real answers. because to live in a place which the perceived things are weird such as strange people behavior, rare weather changes, and some of the events turn uncomfortable make the existence impossible to enjoy, so in the moment when I experience the truth I would see the reasons of the weird thing that was disturbing me and I'll faced the world with the real eyes open managing the reality with conscious mind.

[Jenniffer]

[zaiba akhtar]

i do agree with you.Because Everyone always wants to experience a new
world and want to go beyond the boundaries to truth to experience new
truth of life.Neo decision for taking the red pill seems to me the
best decision he could ever take in his life

[chenq...@yahoo.com.cn]

If you let me choose take blue pill or red pill, I would prefer to
choose the red pill. The first reason that is I am curious to find
out what happen with people. I am a human being, when I heard there
are something wrong with the world, I would want to know if it is
true. To take the blue pill while it mean I will stay in cyrrent
existence, It will not change anything with my life. So,I would like
to take a risk rather than stay in current existence.

I agree with Smokie. The different from truth and lie is that at the
end we gain something that we try hard to work for, if we are in the
truth. Otherwise, we just like live in a circle that make the same
mistake again and again and again. It is meaningless.

Even though we don't chose the truth , we have to accept or face the
truth sonner or later. In the movie THE MATRIX it is true that Neo
almost died but later on he accept the truth. What i want to say is
that you might be scare or hard to accept the truth but you can't run
away from it.The sooner you accept the truth the better it is for you.

Why would u want to live in a fake worderful world while there is a
real world that full with thrills and adventures. I will choose the

Claim:stephany, I argree with you point out learing the truth is about
acceptance no matter how long it takes. living a fake and fill with
lies world, it will make us become more stupid. whatther Morpheus
said to neo if right, I think neo will find out by himself. but, if
neo choose to stay in current existence, it would never konw the
truth. In my opinion, taking the red pill is worthy because we need
konw the truth.

if i had to choose one of these pills, i would choose red pill because
even if the matrix is comfortable for me, it is all fake and not
true.i don't want to live in fake world without knowing the truth. the
life would be no meaning and just fake if I live in the fake world. i
may become like cyper ,but the truth is truth. im going to accept the
truth soon.

[johsuan lin]

If I have to make a choice between blue pill and red pill I would
choose the red pill. The reason why I choose the red pill is because I
don't want to live in the world that is not true. I would want to know
the truth even though the truth may hurt me I want to know that. In
the movie, when Neo first heard the truth he did not really want to
believe it, but later he realized the truth, and save his life.

[chenq...@yahoo.com.cn]

Smokie, we can not handle the truth. BUT we should have the ability
to judge. In our world, there is many thing are fake. people also
lie to people. It happened all the time. However, truth should has
many evidence can support the truth. although lie pretended as a
truth, but it still a lie. It will be dedunked one day. although
neo lives a sick world, but Morpheus and his termmate had realized
people was controled by computer. they know the truth. then they let
neo konw too. in the future, it will more and more people realized
the truth. 4月6日, 下午8时58分, Spicy Mama!! <nieves.ju...@gmail.com> wrote:

I agree with your point about making the same choice that Neo makes,
because people do not always face the truth easily but we do not want
live in a lie. In the movie, Neo didn't accept the truth easily at
first, but later he bocomes to face it and save their lives.

i agree with your point about taking the red pill because i also think

truth and try to save the world.

[neveen...@yahoo.com]

I agree with the people that saying we should take the red pill,
because we live only one life.Life is short. what is the meaning to

I agree with your point that you are curious and choose the red
pill. I thing most the people are curious and want to know about
everything. In the movie, Neo is curious, he wants to know what is the
matrix so he chose the red pill.

so frustrated.

[hangi song]

i understand what u want to say but i don't agree with your point that
taking the blue pill because the life without truth has no meaning.for
example, in "allegory of the cave" the prisoners thought that the cave
they live in is everything in the world and just looking the
shadows,but there are a lot of things to enjoy beyond their reality.

If I have to make a choice between the red pill and blue pill, I would
choose the red pill. I think the major reason why I choose the red
pill is I certainly want to live in a reality world. In my opinion, I
believe people be worth take a risk to know the truth, although the
truth makes people feel in crazy way and it probably happens many
unknowns, and no one can predict what happen in the next second.

[hangi song]

i do agree with your point that taking red pill because people always
want to try something new and know if it is true or not. In the movie
"matrix" neo tried to break the rule of the society to feel real and
wanted to know the truth so that he took the red pill.

[michelle (yahui)]

I agree with your discussion, in my view, the truth is certainly
important for me too. If a person lives in a unreal world for a long
time, it would hurt the feelings and make people stay in anxiety.

want to live in a fake world. In the movie, Neo doesn't want to life
in a fake life so he chose the red pill.

I agree with hangi song's point because I also don't want to live

and he accept the truth.

[yvonn...@live.cn]

I do not agreee with you. I will choose the blue bill, because if I
take the red one, I will go into a world which they consider as "real
world" and join a war which we never know when is ending of the war.
I do not want to live in a world which is often darkness, never has
sunness. Even though the world which made by the Matrix is false, at
least it is a peaceful world and I can be a nomal person.

[Xiomara Aguirre]

My choice between the red and blue pill would be the red pill. the
reason I choose a red pill is I would want then to tell me the truth
about whats going on. i dont want to be knowing things in the last
moment. right know in society television, news and the internet
control our lives. we be to busy on facebook and not learning whats
going on the real world.
i claim that if we all want to take the red pill to find the truth.
But really, do u really want to know the truth each one of us worry a
bout whats happening to us individually such as our own life& personal
problem
sometimes we people dont mind or care wat goes on in our society until
they make a big deal out of it and put it into like a yellow or red
warning

[nasrin]

I'd take the red pill, obviousy. Who wants to stay in the world of
stuff? We get up and get out of bed every morning to experience
something new and real. If we wanted make believe, we'd stay in bed
and ponder the what if and get lost in illusions. I think every
morning that we wake up we chose the red pill, oppose to the blue.

[Leena Narain]

I would certainly take the red pill.

[Carmencita Zubieta]

Hi Prof.Smith your question sounds interesting because it made me
think about what I would do if I were in Neo's situation. In the movie
Neo made the choice of pick out the red pill to see the reality. If I
were the one to make a choice I will definitely chose to take the red
pill because I wouldn't like to live a lie.

[William Restrepo]

I believe it all depends on how satisfied you really are with your own
life and if there is something you would do to change it. If I was
given the choice right now I would be definitly taking the blue pill.
Unlike Neo I can say I'm very satisfied with my own life and even if i
was living a "lie" how would I entirely know Morpheus is telling me
the truth or not. Neo lived a miserable life and wanted to now what it
would be to live on "the other side".

[Gabe Lang]

I would take the red pill and never look back, never mind that blue
one, because I'm the type of person how enjoys being liberated with
the truth. Look at neo he diden't regret it now did he?

"Cynic" is the word to know for the day.

It is true that the truth can drive people crazy sometimes because
probably they didn't expect itand it was a shock for them. In my
opinion I believe it is good to know the truth than living a lie even
though is hard to accepted it. For instance, the main character Neo
didn't want to accept Morpheus's words about what would happen to
humans turning into batteries. Machine needs the energy of humanity so
they have to keep humans under their control.After hearing this Neo
got desperate and go back to the world where he was living.

If i were truman, i'd want reality. caz he's fake world was too
redundant. Neo's reality on the other hand is sooo harsh. The food is
so yucky! Makes me want to hold on to the blue pill just in case.

why would you take the red pill? If with the blue pill you can just go
back to normal without having to deal with more nonsense

[alla...@yahoo.com]

If I had the opportunity to choose between the red and the blue pill I
guess I would be tempted to choose the red pill, because who has never
thought of seeing what's going on in a different world, a
technological one, where all your quiestion could be answered, but I
wouldn't choose it. I would choose the blue pill because I couldn't
go somewhere where I would be insecure about my safety and far from my
loved ones. Even, if I had to live the rest of my life in a fake
world.

[William Restrepo]

You aren't Neo he got lucky cause obviously its a movie and he has to
survive everything but that doesnt mean you would be so lucky why get
stressed with the war going on if its not your war

[MAHBUB...@live.lagcc.cuny.edu]

I TRIED TO WATCH MOVEI IN ONLINE BUT I COULD NOT, YET I HAVE SOME CLUE
ABOUT THE PILLS. NEO DID THE RIGHT CHOICE WHICH ONE I WOULD DO.
BECAUSE HE HAD A QUESTION ABOUT MATRIX AND HE WANTED TO KNOW THE
ANSWER AND THE REALITY. WHEN WAS GIVEN TWO CHOICES ABOUT PILLS, HE
TOOK RED PILL TO KNOW THE ANSWER WHICH HE WAS LOOKING FOR. SUPPOSE I
HAVE A GOAL AND WANT TO ATTAIN THAT GOAL OR ACCOMPLISHMENT. IF I AM
GIVEN SOME CHOICES, I WOULD TAKE EXACTLY THE ONE WHICH IS RELATED AND
EASY TO GAIN MY GOAL BY LEAVING OTHER IRRELEVANT CHOICES.

DOES A RED PILL OR ANY OTHER PILL HELP PEOPLE TO KNOW THE TRUTH?

I would get take the red pill because I wouldn't want to stay in a
world that wasn't real like Truman in the Truman show.
The fact that Neo and Truman are miserable in their own worlds is
proof that choosing the red pill is better than
choosing the blue pill.

[MAHBUB...@live.lagcc.cuny.edu]

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU THAT IT IS PMPORTANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH FOR
THE PEOPLE BY HAVING STRONG SOURCES OF THAT SUBJECT. BUT, , ARE PILLS
STRONG ENOUGH TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH IN THIS REAL WORLD?

[MAHBUB...@live.lagcc.cuny.edu]

ACCORDING TO THIS MOVEI, BY HANVENG SOME RED PILLS ONE'S MAY FIND
OUT THE TRUTH.

oh, yes you are capable of many things, just that you are only limited
by your mind, as happen in the movie, they wash their mind and
enforced his muscles to make him be capable of his challenge.

ARE TAKING THE GREEN PILLS OR ANY OTHER PILLS RISKY TO FIND OUT THE
TRUTH? IF WE DEPEND ON A PILL, ARE WE GONNE GET THE REALITY OF THIS
WORLD? WHAT IS YOUR SUGGESTION?

[cmat0518]

I agree with you rolita because even if it's crazy, the truth is
better than a lie.
Since Neo is miserable with the lie,the truth is more reasonable.

[nasrin]

I agree with you. If taking a pill could give me answeres to questions
that have been lingering in my head, i'd take the pill in a heart beat
too.
Ignorance isn't always bliss. if it were than there would be a lot
more happy peolple. sigh.
