I think that it is foolish to believe in a personal god because you have zero chance of getting it right. However, I wont dismiss the possibility of a creator per se, if someone could show me evidence for a creator I would be open to reading it, but it needs to be scientific and logical. Not just 'mr X said that he was son of god Y and it says this in book Z, which a fair few millenia old, follow it blindly sinner', which happens far too much and I'm sure most of you notice I go from nice to hostile when that happens.

Premise 1: We are soon on the verge of developing computers that will be able to recreate human minds

Premise 2: As such, we could develop computers that could recreate an entire world or even solar system.

 

Logical conclusion: If this technology became available, we would use it to create these "false" worlds for research, also likely for entertainment. These false worlds when technologically advanced enough would create there own false worlds.

Logical Conclusion 2: Therefore it's logical to assume that the odds of being a "real" world vs a "fake" world are very small even in a universe that wouldn't have a god.

Logical Conclusion 3: It's statistically probable we are living in a false world. AKA a world created by someone else. It is statistically probably a creator exists.

 

theoretically I agree that your premises and conslusion could one day be applicable. However, the laws of probability offer no proof for me on thisd matter as they have no bearing or practicality on the subject. I understand where you are coming from though.
