The Church of the Serpent: The Philosophy of the Snake and Attaining Transcendent Knowledge Quotes

“In The Matrix, Morpheus says, “If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then ‘real’ is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.” And what are electrical signals made of? What is “matter” made of? If you can’t answer that then you can’t possibly know what matter is. The fact of feeling pain and the hardness of things does not in any way prove that “matter” exists. Sheez, Descartes explicitly refuted this nonsense centuries ago. You feel pain and hardness in your dreams, but there’s no matter in your dreams, so we know for an absolute fact that mental experiences in no way prove the existence of non-mental matter. In fact, they prove that matter does not exist and everything is mind!”
