Quoting: Seer777 Why is it so hard to believe that God is the creator of this simulation? Quoting: 99thmonkey It's a game designed by God. You're supposed to enjoy it. Learn how to play. Simulation theory does provide room and a requirement for, Intelligent Design. Agree. Quoting: Seer777 I see it kinda like a fractal of The Sims. Imagine your Sim, sitting in front of their computer playing The Sims. I think it’s a choose your own adventure type of program myself lol. Open platform style. Hehe Quoting: *Arabella* I think so too. I've considered that if there is an afterlife, that is exactly what it is. I like to think my soul in some form, decided to take an 'Earth vacation' for however how long I live on this plane. All the things I can do, learn, see, feel, eat, etc., while I am here, is part of the 'appealing package' to come to Earth in the first place. EARTH Simulation theory does provide room and a requirement for, Intelligent Design. Agree. Quoting: Seer777 I see it kinda like a fractal of The Sims. Imagine your Sim, sitting in front of their computer playing The Sims. My favorite part of The Sims game play, was raising my Sim's talent points. I would spend all my time teaching them to cook, play chess, raise their charisma, paint, play guitar, etc.. The social aspect was never that appealing to me. And my Sim would communicate with just a few closer friends, find a partner, have a couple of kids. Then I would stop playing because the game because it would get boring, or my main Sim died.

(OP) Ride the wings of the mind User ID: 79836353 United States 03/01/2021 01:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It all comes back to Roko's Basilisk. If the thought experiment is true..we're already in a Hell of our own making and it will just keep repeating. Stuck in a time loop which may seem like 1000s of years looking back, but may really only be as far back as the memory of the first person uploaded into the new reality. IOW, at some point in the future we simulated a reality because we were afraid to die and uploaded ourselves into this simulation. A future that hasn't, BUT WILL happen. Precognition might just be trace memories of the past loops that weren't completely erased. Like starting a game you beat with the extra loot. The game is linear. It has a beginning, middle and end. If you like it, you can play again or forget about it. Perhaps the basilisk is trying to fix something or just wants to continue the loop at all costs to future human potential outside the simulation, as it loops over and over perpetuating itself and its own existence.. There is the chance, that by being so good at predicting human behavior, it can branch or break the loop leading away from the point of looping no return..and lead us to a new simulated reality. It could also be a very good thing..if we see it as 'Creator designed game simulation' and we are here to learn something or play the game to pass what could be endless time. Looking from the outside in, what would a 'Creator' see looking into our Sim world, if it existed at all? Most likely, we belong to the Earth. Like everything else here.

(OP) Ride the wings of the mind User ID: 79836353 United States 03/01/2021 02:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The game would have to be linear if the end was already defined and known in advance because it was created to end that way from the beginning. Simulation theory is one of the few comforts I still entertain when attempting to find meaning in this reality and a potential for an afterlife. I do not discount people's experience of NDE's but their brains are still alive so we can't know for sure. Nothingness is appealing too. Guess we won't know, until we know and then maybe we won't know again. Knowing everything would be torturous boredom. Difficulties strengthen the Mind as labor does the body... ~Seneca |

Speaking of..for those of you that will exit this reality due to advancing age over the next decade..please downsize all your crap that you've collected over your life so it not left to your kids and grandkids to clean up and throw away all your stuff. No one has time or cares to sell it, no one had room to pack their houses full of dead people's things. It is comforting to believe we go on. I know why people do it.
