Simulation Theory
Simulation Theory, if true, would be the only rational way in which the literal interpretation of scriptural creation by intelligent design would be plausible. As such it has become a popular viral philosophy, since for many people it seems to resolve the dissonance they have between their desire to believe in traditions and what they were taught as children and the reality they have come to know as adults.
However, that is no reason to make bold assumptions about the nature of reality. And even if it were a simulation what kind of simulation would it be?
No Evidence For Simulation Theory
The idea that the observer effects of quantum mechanics suggests some kind of universal render distance is absurd.
