For lack of a better word god, but this explanation only transposes the problem, what is God's existence. And yes we are just 1 and 0 rationalizing or translating cosmic mathematics into language.
So you believe in the Simulation Theory, with that said i do have objections/reasons I have distaste for it:
Are we sims then, we couldn’t be, then we’d be entirely fictional. Not nonexistent, just fiction, absence, as such who could have came up with this theory? Nobody, it’s a self harmful idea, but not the only one.
It must be a matrix then? I first need to ask, what would support a Matrix style existence, Neo was the byproduct of manipulation into existence so that’s not illogical as The Sims idea. But, if we did live in a Matrix we’d need explanations on our independent though, existence in the matrix, our moralistic/ethical reasoning, and lastly as you said, what created the Matrix.
Lastly, this was brought forth by a highly regarded college I forget the name of: We are brains in a computer, this would mean we DO exist, and are simply, surely we’re so inherently intrigued by technology. that it wouldn’t be unbelievable to think we reached a point we’re everyone gained this computer brain existence right?
Surely Deja Vu would be a glitch happening, if we could think about this sort of tech, obsess over it, and strive for it, why wouldn’t we have possibly already, maybe everything is a simulation where humans are trying to overcome obstacles that destroyed them history prior.
Maybe people with severe mental illness, schizophrenia, hallucinations, no response to outside stimulating efforts, could’ve been infected with a glitch?
The argument I pose: Human minds are subjective, ever changing, only at times based on logic. How is that computer, or numerically correct? You can’t reduce intentional subjectivity influenced actions to simple immaterial such as 1’s & 0’s.
If everyone else is simultaneously simulated, then we must be too, right??
Well, everyone else isn’t you, does that also make you, not you?
The resounding nail in the coffin, if this theory is true, then science can’t be trusted, as it’s just data err to corrupted virus, and only one logic. As such, since science can’t be trusted, this theory couldn’t be trusted, at least that is my opinion.
