124% based on the amount of liberal conjecture and innuendo is spewed on this site. 00100010000100001 is da only explanation
What's the chances simulation theory is real?

The internet has made human beings dumber and even worse at social interaction. It’s created more and more lunatics and conspiracy theorist.
People who were embarrassed to read out loud in class, or only came to school with a pencil in their ear and paper notebook, trying to kick knowledge….

Interesting enough, this is why i initially found Westworld so interesting because it questioned exactly that. In the show they ae advanced robots, but they were programmed with real emotionds & bonds. However to the people controlling them they were looked at as lifeless & emotionless.

I haven’t seen Westworld yet, but kinda reminds me of the Black Mirror Star Trek/game episode, where the guy takes the co workers DNA sample to create them in the game, and they don’t realize they aren’t real/have all the memories of the real version of themselves.

We 100% are living a simulation. It is the exact same thing as god or religion
“God got me. God is in control.”
What if God was the simulator?

I believe the scientists will tell you none of this **** is real. Nothing exists objectively in material form. Our sensory perceptions form our reality, how it appears to us. Look out the window, what you see is just light waves bouncing off/interacting with other conglomerations of particles and entering your eyeball. The brain forms the picture, its not "out there". Platos Allegory of the Cave and all that. Touch a tree, the sensation is just the conglomeration of particles that make up your hand interacting with the particles that make up the tree, vibrating at a certain rate. Every sense boils down to a wave function, its all mathematical. Whether we behave like AI or AI behaves like us, its all just mechanical inputs and outputs. Yet we identify so strongly with our thoughts/personality, that is us we think, but objectively there is no you, or me, its all just a mechanistic thought process based on inputs to the sensory organs.
Theoretically one could hook up a brain in a jar to some form of neural net and have that brain experience the world as we do. The concept of the matrix. We could very well be that, but how would you or could you ever know?

It would be illogical??? That's not even a logic based answer...

Check out PBS Space Time on Youtube for stuff like this.
Some of it can be hard to keep up with, but it's worth it if you're really interested.

we may all have our ideas and thoughts but one thing we all have in common is we all go back to the same soil
i think we are star dust sun makes light which allows us to live and can even eat its own light (black hole) once the sun dies out we all going back into that void of the sun (singularity)
if this was a cpu sim i would think someone would of broke it by now or found a glitch lol look at the truman show classic film
what i have a hard time understanding is how all this came from nothing (big bang) billions of years ago which makes me think where did that matter the big bang had come from which puts me in a endless loop of what created that which created that lol smh
just live and die and hope for the best after death.

Philip K **** who was shown in the documentary several times had a bunch of his short stories turned into movies
bladerunner
total recall
Minority report
Just to name a few, i may delve into more of his short stories in the future

Ok…. I’ve been having some REALLY weird coincidences popping up this week, maybe we are in a simulation. But why does the simulation care about me… or is it all in the programming …. 
For real though, I say most things are pure chance, but it’s been weird.

Only time i genuinely feel this way is Deja Vu, because its never a moment of sigificance. It's the most random set of actions & thoughts & you get this feeling of i've done this many times before

Though the world feeling real to me based on my personal perception may not be a logical answer, I believe that it is a logical way to describe why this world doesn't feel simulated to me.It would be illogical??? That's not even a logic based answer...
