Another thing I forgot to mention in my post the other day is, if our universe really is some sort of advanced construct, then what of the universe the people who made the simulation? Is their universe natural, or is it too artificial? Is it simulations all the way down? Like I said before, it really does seem like a secular creation myth. It's like some people can't deal with the likelihood that existence is quite possibly a cosmic accident, that there may be no "why" to existence and that it simply *is* for reasons we may never know. The universe was never under any obligation to conform to our psychological needs or our notions of "common sense." But some people need to feel like they and everything else exists on purpose.
