I know you're out there. I can feel you now. I know that you're afraid.
You're afraid of us. You're afraid of change. I don't know the future. I
didn't come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to tell
you how it's going to begin. I'm going to hang up this phone, and I'm going
to show these people what you don't want them to see. I'm going to show them
a world without you. I'm going to show them a world without rules or
controls, without borders or boundaries. A world where anything is possible.
Where we go from there is a choice I leave to you.
Horatio W. Dresser (#8011), was a famed psychologist and author? He wrote at
least 19 books on religion and psychology between 1895 - 1914. Many credit
him as being the uncredited founder of "Scientology", as it is based on his
writings. He was a follower of Phineas Quimby, from which another follower
founded the "Christian Science Movement".
Thanks Randall. Did you know that Christian Science owes a lot to the
philosophy of the Bhagavad Gita, upon which "The Matrix" is, loosely,
based?

I'm not familiar with "Christian Science" (never bothered), but I have read
at least two translations of the Bhagavad Gita, and it's one of my favorite
religious/philosophical works.

And The Matrix is "loosely" based on lots of things. ;)
