Behind Matrixism

[airiefairie]

Thou shall believe in a messianic prophecy.
Thou shall perceive reality as multi-layered and semi-subjective.
Thou shall adhere to the principles of at least one of the world's major religions until such time as the One returns.

These are some of the main beliefs of a reported 16,000 followers of Matrixism, a religion, yes, a religion, inspired by the acclaimed movie trilogy The Matrix. The religion's official website claims The Matrix movies and the associated media are about the fulfilment of an apocalyptic prophecy regarding a messiah and his role in bringing about world peace.
