^Oh yeah, what's your definition of God-because if God can defy the natural laws-then he's supernatural, hence the term super.

The guy who created our universe. If we believe in this logically likely computer god... He could defy our "natural" laws because he created them. Via his computer.

That would be "supernatural" to us. But in reality he is just operating outside of our reality... while also able to affect our reality.

Which is far as I know is how just about every religion see's there god.


Oh, the computer argument. Well, that's fine.

But that just opens more questions. Why is there only person? Why is it not an entire race outside our reality, our universe? Why couldn't it be a project simulation run by thousands of their scientists? What makes them Godly? As far as i know, a lot of religions see the gods as wise and powerful creatures that will aid them with their troubles if they pray enough. If this is indeed a computer simulation, then all of the religions are really for naught. Okay, now I haven't the time to scroll through this entire thread so I don't know what's been said nor do I actually care that much. That being said, this is moot.

 

They created everything.

If thousands of sceintists created this world, i'd say they were all "gods" with the head god being the head of the project. Kinda like a Monotheism.

If this is a computer simulation, the religions may be for naught... or the researchers... or even some bored 17 year old who uses this world as Sim God and could answer peoples prayers, or cause them torment. Much how one of us might intentionally cause a tornado to our Sim City town.

This unvierse might be someones cell phone game for all we know. Or a RTS game where everyone created their own religion and now they're trying to see who wins. Who knows.

That's really unimportant.

Heck we could be a cellphone game, of a virtual person who is part of a universe that's a hand held game, that's a cellphone game or a reality thats an MMORPG.

Who knows.  Even if another fake virtual person created this universe.  I'd think he would in fact be god.
