I don't see the "simulation" argument as anything else than a "god of the gaps" substitution at this point.
The "creator's creator" may be "irrelevant" at the first layer, but again, it just begs the question. Let's say we discover that we are in a simulation. Now we have to ask who made the simulation (our creator(s)), and we're right back where we started from again.
It's just another layer over the exact same question.
- noonespecial 10y agoI fully concede this point until I creat a sim of my own and look in to find my creatures having the same argument. Then I'll try to stop thinking so much!
- davelnewton 10y agoHOW DO WE KNOW YOU DIDN'T CREATE THIS ONE
- noonespecial 10y ago:) It was homework in cosmology class. Given one Davelnewton, create a minimum viable universe around him. You figured it out already!? Looks like I'm gettin another D-. Sheesh. At this rate I'm never gonna graduate and get my G.O.D.
- davelnewton 10y agoIf this is viable I'd hate to see a crappy one. Clearly you were running on fumes when you created my friend NPCs.
