guess what, XSilentPhantomX is opening up another make-you-think type of thread! yay!! :P anyways, what if fiction becomes reality?
What if all our stories, end of the world scenarios, plagues, disasters came true? do you ever think of what would happen? what if the world did somehow begin to fall apart around us? and there's nothing you can do? how do you defend yourself, your family? how can you know that the zombie horror stories we read don't come true, and any second something could happen. we pass off terrible mythical creatures as a myth, but don't you ever think of those creatures when you find yourself alone in the dark? is the reality of it that we must be aware that anything can happen at anytime? or is the reality if it having the feeling of being secure that nothing like that could ever happen? is fantasy the products of imagination, or a theory? Can we ever be certain that no fiction elemnts will ever come to be reality?
I'm afraid that if every story came to be its own seperate yet connected reality, they would constantly conflict. Imagine Golding's Lord of the Flies or Remarque's Auf Westen Nichts Neues {All Quiet on the Western Front} manifesting alongside Hitler's Mein Kampf? It simply wouldn't end well for any story or person. Besides, we'd all end up completely screwed if some of my stories came true.
We'd all be screwed, if every single one came true. Especially the end-od-the-world and zombie and alien ones. So, I would just die ASAP, I'm not gonna fight for nothing.
Me might be screwed, but you would have to say it would be an entertaining death. I'm wondering, though, wouldn't all of the ones that end in salvation cancel out the ones that end in utter human eradication?
What would happen if nonfiction became fiction? anyone thought about that?! (Although that doesn't make much sense...)
Fiction is like dreams, we're aiming to create what's in fictitious stories. (Well some of the stuff, but it seems like we're trying to end the world >.>

So if penguins suddenly didn't actually exist? That would be quite weird, because there would be nothing in the world anymore. Everything would now be fiction and be gone. O_O

Well if you think about it in technological advances, and ignoring doomsday items, this is already true, because almost all technology was fiction at one point or another.
1700's Man-Flying? Pfft, only in our dreams! 1900's Man-Flying? Yeah, I travel all around the world
Early 1900's Man-Space flight? That's only a thing that H.G. Wells writes about! Late 1900's Man-Yeah with all the satellites in space nowadays, i bet it's pretty junky up there
You get my point i hope...When it comes to technology it's only fiction until it becomes reality.
Also if you want to get into technicality and if you believe in it, you could argue that everything possible that could happen has happened in an alternate universe using the Multiverse Theory. So in one universe Ape's are the dominant species and humans the wild animals, and in another people are tall and blue with tails. Do you see where i'm going with this again?
