Even in the Matrix, there was a need satisfied by the battery people for the God figure. There is a need that we satisfy, else there would be no need for us. Everything exists on that basis, right?
It's not just an innate sense... Everything we can see and/or experience tells the same story, no matter how much more new technology allows us to deepen that experience.
And, personally, I see no need for those "wars." Science and Math tell us how something happens, and metaphysics guesses at why something happens. Ethics helps us to decide. My beef with Captain Bubba (and not to single him out, but he's the one that said value is a human invention) is that he's expecting only one sort of thinking to provide him with all he needs to live, and that sort of thinking just happens to be the one he's most fond of, or maybe the one he knows the most about.. I hope he doesn't view his nutrition this way.

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
