The Myth of the Eternal Return
After watching the Matrix in class i had been bitten by the bug. I had to scrounge through my roommates movie collections and find the others. A small matrix session ensued and thus many hours were wasted in front of the tv. However one particular quote i found interesting was when the Architect is speaking with Neo and says, "Which brings us at last to the moment of truth, wherein the fundamental flaw is ultimately expressed, and the Anomaly revealed as both beginning... and end" It brought to mind the first theme of the class, The myth of the eternal return. The flaw the architect is speaking of is simply Love. Which then brought to mind a quote spoken by Dr. Sexon today in class, ( something along the lines of) "Marriage is rape". Does this mean love is consensual rape, or that love doesn't necessarily exist in a perfect world, only in the created realm of the matrix?
