'Mooooommmm, my game has started to think for itseellllfff!'
good one :D
People don’t really think that well
Hahahahahhahahahah
😂😂😂😂😂
The reason we don't see the laws of physics spontaneously changing or anyone suddenly being able to fly is because the Creator is AFK.
+Darth Immortal Even then the machine needs some energy to run on. 14 billion years is a long time...
***** Good point, but we are not even sure that our own universe is infinite...
+Ferenc Kocsis The time in the simulation would probably go much faster.
No Man's Sky, will come out soon and it simulates many galaxies, of course not that detailed, but the size is not that huge of a problem if you got the maths figured out!
Hoerkelis You may be right. Sometimes I feel that this "simulation" is more complex than just rendering the atoms. I think that there is some laws that govern our everyday lives that we cannot grasp or see. Our ancestors figured it out and named it GOD.
Ferenc Kocsis I think an important question they forgot to ask is, how likely is it that the kid from the future believed in god and implemented a god in our simulation. He might just have programmed a God AI, which then created the universe, heaven and hell.
The creator of the supposed simulated universe doesn't have to be human at all. Could be any lifeform. peace.
Yep like trying to explain light to a blind man.. far beyond our imagination
+Swarnkar Rajesh In order to be interested in such a simulation it at least has to be self aware. Being self aware we can tell it to go fuck itself in it's abstract ass.
Humans are the only intelligent life in the universe
@@SixHundredAndSixtySix ya,keep believing that.nothing could b further than the truth
Then what alien or god is gonna be using a damn human made computer
I don't believe that God is some teenage kid in some garage. That is sacrilegious. I believe that God is a middle aged man in his mom's basement. We've already split off in two different denominations.
I was already replying with a rebuttal before I finished reading your post :)
Andrew Weis minus the moms basement you are correct
Just wish the makers of all religions had internet back then
God is real.
From garage to basement, great
ok so brian greene does not like this simulatiom universe theory.that should of been the title.
What if we're living in a simulated universe created by another being in a simulated universe? This goes on forever, a fractal of endless universes.
Yes, that is why it maybe much more likely that we are in a simulation.
Life is a fractal
Yes and wouldn't all of those simulated universes end, if the first one got destroyed?
Yes. Once the first simulation was made, an infinite number were created.
Yea that's actually a part of this theory. Which is where the idea that statistically speaking, we are more likely to be within one of those simulated universes as opposed to the real one. But another theory as now implied that because we ourselves can't create an simulated universe, this either means we are the real universe or we are the next in the chain to create a simulated universe. So instead of an infinite to one chance of us being in a simulated universe, it's a 50/50 chance lol.
This is a serious question but Brian is playing down the importance of this question with his "kid with pimples in a garage" analogy. Curious to know what was Richard Dawkins answer to this question
Yes where is it?
I could listen to Brian Greene talk forever xD
I experienced real life lag before
Why do we need to have a god that controls us? We can have multiple players that play us individually, or we are just automatically working characters.
Life is a video game, Consciousness is fundamental. pear laboratories
🤦
But who created the video game
Future plans to paint a sign on the desert floor, 1 mile wide. The sign will read, "Please turn off the simulation!".
Brian Greene asks: "If a religion were to rise up (worshipping a Creator who created us as a simulated world) would it make sense to worship that Creator?"
That religion might already exist! According to James Arden's "Testament of Light" the Bible contains clues about this world being a simulated virtual reality, sort of like a super realistic video game.
It's just a kind of interpretation
Quote me the part where it says that in the Bible.
@@brolybanderas42 Smallest form of reality is sound, God of the Bible created the universe using by his WORD (sound) and WISDOM (physics). Scientists now call this "the Big Bang".
Hebrews 11:3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the voice of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible' (creation).
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. And God SAID, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.
True. A programmer. Uses. Math and words to construct a simulation. So. The bible says he spoke our universe into existence. That sounds like a simulation. Of a sort. It would explain ever thing. About infinity. Amd why. We can never quite come to grips woth our own existence. ,,,
Have you ever played the game The Sims and decided it would be fun to ruin all your Sims lives? I remember playing it on my dads gateway PC. I would buy fireplaces and place flammable objects next to them inside houses with no doors and watch my sims helplessly burn in a fire I created. Probably why Trump got elected, some futuristic teenager is bored.
I know this is a few years late but your comment is brilliant and deserves my like
@@khashk4436 Lol Now we have Biden.
Omg lol
You drown kittens I bet too.
I've watched about 100 hours of Dawkins videos and that's the first time I've ever heard him agree to a plausible explanation (one that can't be refuted anyways) about our origins.
03:35 Really the only time you will ever see Dawkins confused.
I simple comment here, and I'm not specifically advocating for God.
But I find it interesting that these scientific guys are willing to entertain theories and ideas about this sort of thing, but they seem unwilling to entertain - and in fact many, including Mr. Dawkins - will argue strongly against ideas about a creator God.
It seems to me, and I am very ignorant on these subjects, that the same ideas that goes into thinking about a creator computer would also apply to a God. If one brings in things such as Quantum super position, the double-slit experiment (especially where the arrow to time seems to be violated with certain variations of it), and quantum entanglement - that the idea of some supernatural phenomena becomes not too difficult to stomach anymore.
The bottom line is that the more we learn about the universe, the more our understanding moves away from a materialistic and simple classical view of it as matter and energy and the more it moves towards some strange and fantastic reality where reality is beyond anything that we can understand. It seems that we live in a universe where there are things operating in a very magical way at a very fundamental level.
+jimmi izzy , no i don;t c richard like that , i understand what u say , but what there saying is , that physic;s say;s that thing;s can appear fron nothing and it;s not nesasurely that we are from a creator coz of the possiblty;s of chance that;s all
+jimmi izzy
Because computer simulations exist, computers exist, intelligence is computable by manipulating electrical signals, beings exist, etc.
Richard Dawkins has postulated the existence of God and criticised it. He's against creationism and people who actually accept this being as true without evidence.
Up,left,down,up- x2

There, the Health and body armor + cash cheat code.
you dont have to say up up .. or even think up up ... you just do it ..
its the best immersive experience
What if our creator is just a part of another simulation?
It’s probably the case 😂
Now we're talking.
What if in every video game, those characters think they actually exist and think they are making their own conscious decisions
+Takei Kazushige Well no. Like stick doesn't want to fly and get caught by dog. It just obeys laws of motion.
+Dysputant but where do you draw the line. Does Ant want to build anthill?
"But whenever I found my character in a bad situation, I simply reset the game. ... So the world I abandoned by resetting might have remained engulfed with evil."
The Sims is a prototype of us...
In case you mean this seriously, it's not true. We haven't built a computer that can simulate the brain yet, so there's no way that game characters in far simpler simulations are in any way aware.
A glitch in a simulation appears as normal behaviour to the inhabitants of the simulation, because the physics of any glitch is always consistent with the running of the programme. The glitch happens because the program told it to glitch and those living in the program would see only consistency with their simulated universe. The glitch would only appear as a glitch to the programmer.
So if there were glitches in our simulated world we wouldn't know they were glitches if they happened around us.
What are glitches to the programmer could be perceived as properties of the natural world to us.
A black hole for example could be a sort of crash overload in the system where something else was intended to be, perhaps the programmer doens't have the processing power to over come this problem, but we wouldn't perceive it the way the programmer does.
After all the crash in any game is consistent with the program's written code.
Because math is logical and coding is based on mathematical principles we would always be able to deduce any programmed glitch to a perceived natural cause as all we are doing in the simulation is reading the causal connections of interrelated data, perceived by us as what we call physics.
So if there was a glitch we wouldn't know. The glitch would be perceived as natural phenomina.
True we wouldn't see the glitch. Cause were part of the glitch.
Brilliant
Go green! It's not a simulation anymore, its creation! Keep up the good work!
*Brian greene breaths*
Audience : *HAHAHAHA*
Has anyone seen that video of Carl Sagan explaining the 4th dimension?
bruh somebody tell me the konami code to this simulation then
Does it means that I should jump from my building with a computer keybord??...
'

Too late It is done, Peace out
3:36
That's what miracles are Mr. Dawkins.
Why is it that the coding within the world of physics is taken to mean that we're living in a simulation? Maybe SIMS are just mimicking reality in the sense that AI is mimicking intelligence. Maybe God is a supreme being with a supreme intellect and supreme power, and mankind is just now starting to discover the tip of an infinite iceberg concerning His attributes.
How much does it cost to simulate?
Interesting and logically sound arguments here
Richard does make a good point that in the history we can observe the rules in our universe seams very consistent which would reduce the probability that we are living in a simulated world, though it definitely does not rule it out.
+TheRoggan123 Not logical. For numerous reasons but foremost.
He is assuming that time for us is the same as the guy running the computer. This kid could run the computer program in one "pimple kid hour" while he is at school and to our brains this is the entire play through of the universe. I mean he could be running millions of these things in what to him is comparable to seconds. Dawkins is a clown. He prepared for this question and that's what he said? He goes around acting like some logical mastermind but continuously spews nonsense. Sorry he just pisses me off. The only more illogical knucklehead is captain morality Sam Harris. Reading this guys books is like what the fuck is this dude thinking... how do people take him seriously?
+TheRoggan123 Seeing as humanity's period of existence is a mere infinitely small blip on the timeline of the universe the fact that reality's parameters remained constant that whole time is unremarkable.
It would be like saying it is odd that you played a simulator game for 10 seconds without a patch/glitch changing the rules.
*****
not trying to be contentious because dawkins argument is flawed but you are making the same mistake dawkins is. It is irrelevant how long or short a period of time the universe takes to play out in comparison to some organism living in it. While entertaining the possibility of a simulation, we have no reason to assume a simulation would take a very long period of time compared to the simulators life. It could very well take as long as between breakfast and lunch or as long as it does to brush his teeth or shorter.
in your case it actually is more insightful to imagine the opposite scenario, which is equally as imaginable, from where we stand, that is this simulation requires a very large portion of the simulators life to carry out. Either way the point being that we have no idea what the relationship is between "our time" and the "simulator's time".
Of course the rules of our universe seem very consistent. If it were the case that we are simulated, we wouldn’t be aware of the rules changing any more than the characters in a game are when you use a invincibility cheat code. The reprogramming affects our memory of the past in a sense so that it seems as if that’s how it always had been.
Dr. Dawkins seems uncomfortable with the notion that a certain physics in simulated universe could not be violated. I've only been in this game for 50 odd years and the number of bugs I see in our simulated world goes far beyond physics.
what if physical laws applicable only in our stimulated universe, and teenage kids world has some sort of magical stuffs?
doesn't it seems him like a god now?
“O Shree Krishna, the universe is nothing but your manifestation and you are also its supreme master.” Further, he expresses the vastness of the form he is experiencing, by saying that from whichever angle he looks, Arjun cannot discern any end to his manifestations. When he searches for the beginning, he is unable to find it. When he tries to see its middle, he again gets no success, and when he searches for the end, he can find no limit to the panorama manifesting before him.
I think you probably can't even be allowed to have a "real" universe, if one is a simulation, aren't all observed lives simulated? I think it's better than the other possibility a "real universe" that has to have an origin or that just is.
Actually, any observation is a paradox.
Who's to tell this isn't a simulation. Who's to tell you are actually real. What if you are all part of the system that keeps me under control in a simulation? If this is not real, if it's merely what the simulation is telling me, than are my thoughts my own?
of course not. your thoughts arent personal or impersonal. thoughts arise in concordance to external stimuli. thoughts also arise based on prior conditioning (opinions, experience, memory, etc). thoughts are momentary causal states and we build a lot of our identity off of them. but building your identity off of fabrications, makes your identity a fabrication as well. thought is not important. non conversational thoughts really just lead to misconceptions, since all we experience as individuals is based off of our perceptions of the world and not direct experience.
There are an infinite number of unfalsifiable speculations you can concoct. There's very little benefit in discussing any of them. Whatever 'this' really is, we may as well just define it as 'real' for the sake of argument and avoiding meaningless semantic squabbles.
My favorite video of recent months. :]
I don’t have evidence for this, but I have this feeling that we’ll understand it when it’s all over. Or not. No matter- just live.
Ah Death is the gateway to all our questions being answered! who knew?
maybe as the universe shrinks we perceive it as expanding. you can't delete reality it just creates more space. more like moving in than moving out
anyways maybe that is how new space is created. a moving evolving/changing effect.
my big toenails are very strong, but i got them clipped and one of them flung off and fell into my beer glass. I fished it out and drank my beer, because im a drunk with thick toenails apparently.
It's a paradox. If you cant know you're living in a matrix be pre-ordained programming, then you cant have enough information to theorize said matrix.
I don't about our universe being a simulation or not, but it is possible, theoretically. This argument could be used to disprove god or at least godly intervention. A simulation is only possible, If every action has a cause and can be explained ( though we may not be aware of the cause and reason), if there even a single random action or "miracle" the system would break. So it's very different from patches or fixing bugs in video games.
Edit: changes are not possible because this simulation/universe can only exist in this code, the number derived by string theory or some other theory, I don't really Remember. But either if you change the physics, it won't create a different universe, it would just fail. Since, these are the only "natural" laws possible. Which also states that instead of being created, these are the only rules that can and do exist.
Assume a beautiful huge crystal alligned perfect. Now due to the perfect alignment even extremely small disturbance can create fault lines. These fault lines creates a slight asymmetry and creates a huge disturbance something like a slow crack in the wall and that creates cataclysm under extremely cold conditions. Moving from absolute zero to absolute zero.
Why are the pimples in the garage?
Just remember!
You gotta shake it before you bake it.
The Hologram (Simulated Universe) is being displayed in "The Processing System of The Real Self or LIFE" and NOT the brain. People don't realise just how EASY it is to see "The Processing System of LIFE", plainly in their vision, as it exists between your real self (LIFE Not the human body) and what you believe or interpret as your universe. Sadly few on Earth ever asks how to see The Processing System of LIFE producing Your Holographic simulation.
Mass doesn't warp space. Without spin space cannot be warped. Say you put something on a sheet it doesn't get warped unless you spin the mass. We have gravity of earth more than moon because the earth spins a larger area than moon. Time can only be related to spin or velocity or movement. Without c square E cannot exist.
Who create or simulated the teen? or endless of simulations? & how, who or it start such system?
Maybe uncertainty is evidence of those imperfections.
These two…are just adorable. The two great example of human minds.
Have no reason to supposed that
Yes God Created The Simulation
as we are in a simulated universe imagine what if to get that cheat code ALL i need to do is to speak and ask the programer to give it to me? i mean... why would i create something that i cant interact with my creation in some way????? it would be so boring just to stand there and see what happens...
what universe did the teenage kid live in and who created it?
If we're just Sims can someone send me the money cheat thnx
There is no difference between a simulated universe and a "real" universe.
Quite possibly true. One will never know maybe after death. We wake up to reality. And realize this was all make believe.
"Where did the universe come from?"
Religious person: "God did it."
Atheist: "An alien computer programmer did it."
Me: "You are both idiots."
To me, the point is, 100 years ago the notion of a simulated universe would have been ridiculed by atheists. Now that we create a variety of these simulations, suddenly we have a terminology and the beginnings of the needed technology. We now consider the possibility of a creator much more easily.
Therefore, since we know not what might, in the future be invented by ordinary humans, it would be wise not to make any hard, absolutist statements about creators. It's as I've said. Atheism is not the logical,scientific position. It's agnosticism which firmly owns that ground.
I read some time ago , of this scenario , which is supposed to be true . A man left a party early and left his phone or something behind and returned to pick it up .When he left the host was wearing a very distinctive shirt , when he returned , the shirt was totally different. He asked his friend why the change of shirt ?and , well i think we all know the answer . Perhaps a glitch in the computer ?
I probably don't need to point out that a simulated Universe might have come into existence only 6,000- years ago or even at the moment of your or my birth, or at any arbitrary point. All the evidence for a 3 billion year old Earth would just be rendered reality as much as the observable Universe. Kind of weird that scientists are the people proposing it. A very stimulating theory for all sorts of reasons.
But then, who created that teenage kid? That's the mail flaw in this argument
If our reality is a simulation, then, that would require a real reality for which that simulation to take place (and a creator).
But even our creator can ask the same question! Is HIS reality a simulation? It just never ends...!
So I bet that this is not a serious question to ask and most importantly, we need to re-define what simulation really means. We still don't even know what consciousness is and if it exists or not, let alone if we do or not have free will...
We have a long way to go before asking questions like these, but we should ask them nonetheless!
Simulation theory may require a base reality, but it's not inconceivable that there is one - in your very dismissal of the theory you assume we're in it now! All you have to grant for this theory to be taken seriously, is that at some time in the future, we may use computing power to simulate a universe. From that, it follows that we may be the ones being simulated., and so on almost ad infinitum.
This seems independent of questions about consciousness and free will. Don't you think?
I like Brian Greene, but can someone tell me why is he in every video in World Science Festival?
That's the most uncomfortable I've ever seen Dawkins.
Because he's being forced to answer a stupid question
Alright, this is good - I'm not sure I like how this man puts off religion as fairies and ghosts - the term 'God' simply means creator, and in this video when he is arguing that it is highly likely we have been created, it means whoever created us (could be anyone) is god. Yes a teenage pimple kid can be god. We don't know who it is and we probably never will so the word GOD was coined. And even if it WERE all fairies and ghosts - life itself is as unexplainable as fairies and ghosts, we just think whatever is in our daily lives is normal, whereas someone from a different universe would think we're fucking fairies and ghosts. life is weird and odd and strange. So whatever the universe is, saying that it is magical is pretty logical. Idk I just don't like the prejudice. We should be more apt to question everything and be OPEN to anything. without judging just because it isn't 'logical' sounding enough.
Genius people like Brian can change atheists' mind.
what is the test? who is doing it and what are the results so far? Please someone show me the proof of the test being performed
Ist a funny thought, but then the only difference is that we will have to explain the REAL universe in which the teenage kid lives, instead of our own world/Simulation. which does not answer any question, it only complicates things.
phil durre In the seminar he says that the universe in the end have to end in something like in the mind of someone.
phil durre Apparently, there is no matter! only consciousness. Which is why people have found the simulation theory to be proof of a Creator/God.
+blk bbw To an extent, it would mean religion's descriptions of god and creation are very abstract and metaphorical. Either on purpose to make it easier for people to digest or for a lack of understanding by the people who might have obtained knowledge on the universe's origins.
We're in a simulation only to the being who created it.
Mom of teen kid - Why are you playing game all the time, now SHUT it DOWN, it's dinner time.
We create our own simulation which is a reflection of ourselves. Our thoughts and actions determine what we experience in a physical world. The higher our knowledge , the more control we have of our physical environment. The matrix is a self created construct which is part of the simulation and is there to help us see our imperfections.
To say that we live in a simulated Universe is like saying that the
birds are actually birds of a cuckoo clock. The fact that we produce
various type of (very poor) simulations of some aspects of reality using
computers, doesn't allow us, in any way, to say that "the Universe is a
computer simulation", or (even worse) that "the brain is a computer"
(which is the ARBITRARY ASSUMPTION of neurosciences).
*****
Computers and computer simulations are inventions of our mind that exist inside reality. So saying that reality is a computer simulation is like a snake that tries to eat its own tail. It is like saying that a computer graphics image of a bird is actually a bird, which makes no sense at all. [by the way, reality existed far before the invention of computers]
+andsalomoni So you are saying that since we right now at our current human levels of computer technology cannot make a universe on par with our own, an exponentially more advanced being couldn't?
Imagine if humans existed for a thousand years more, 5 thousand, 10 thousand, or 1 million years later, imagine how much more advanced our computing would be?
*****
Advanced or not, computing is just computing. We are not computers, even if neurosciences arbitrarily pretend we are. Any computer is equivalent to a universal Turing machine, and Turing machines notoriously don't create universes.
Universe is a scale, the simulation theory proposes a simulation on that scale. Not only do Turing based computers make simulations. The more general definition of computer is simply a device that does calculations and computations.
"Troll", "stupid"... are you talking about yourself?
I'm very glad to see that you know the future one million years from now! Can you tell us what is going to happen tomorrow morning?
The only real question that matters when talking about simulations and multiple-universes is if there is a way to determine, if there is evidence or anyway way to prove that we are indeed in such a place; otherwise, speculating about such things is a waste of time!
There is a huge difference between a creator and a god. There is no question really that the universe was created based on the human definition of the word, but to leap to a god as the creator is specious. In some ways its even silly. Further, there still isn't a reasonable theory for a god, one which has even the remotest chance of being tested. Therefore, the only conclusion is that a god is a philosophy, a creative idea, an easy answer, and one that those who do believe do not want answered. Explaining any mystery by invoking another mystery is ... well, fun and makes for good fiction.
If thats the case aren't videos just universes that think they have memories and are talking about simulated universes?
Fascinating
At some point in the "infinite" regress, there has to be a point where a "real" being created a simulation, because a simulation implies a creator. Therfore there is no reason to assume where we are in the regress. We are just as likely to be "real" as the 1000th simulation in the regress. So the question is a pointless thought experiment.
If the creator was a teenager, the ten commandments would have been a lot different.
Though shall eat cookies all day
Though shall eat candy
Thou shalt nail the babysitter and her sister at the same time.
Tech support please!
But why the teen age boy gave u the capabilities of a mind which can help u to recognize u r in a simulation Bryan? Will u give such capabilities to the beings in the universe u are intending to create in your computer?
well how do all the aliens get to life
what if we're some school child's homework to create a simulation game
A Richard Dawkins classic, all I hear is blasphemy against Pimpled Face Kid God (pbuh)
What if the simulation does not allow to change some things, like physics and that stuff?! A simulated world, in our universe has rules and some unalterable stuff, so why wouldn't that be the case for our simulation? (if we are actually living in a simulation)
the important is not what we behavior,the important is what we don't behavior,that's the real law.
lânchánđời nguyễn yeah, but is it not possible that that law had been programmed too?
We already live in many matrix.If you thought the laws have been programed,that's just about how do we see and how we behavior.i'm not believing in the time any more,i believe the random events is real.The random events don't have the reason or their underlying to happen.Looking at the quantum events,is it random?what is it emergence objects for its chaotic activities?
1:45 a very agitated mmmm from Dawkins at the very word Creator
GRAZIE ❣️
THANK YOU FROM ITALY, 🤗
These atheists are being too soft. When an idea is arbitrary you THROW IT OUT.
so when we die does that mean someone pressed delete
No
📍2:54
In Hinduism there is a concept called Maya which means the world is we live in is just an illusion.
Fly like an eagle, woohoo. Doodoo boo boo. LOL! Yeah man, its all good. The grass is purple and the sky is yellow.
Ok
Sony or XBOX? 🤔
...what these people do not get, is that they are the NPCs being rendered. They are not the consciousness playing the simulated game.
living a simulation ? Depende de estudos que eu acredito que possamos provar a realidade se nos aprofundarmos na estrutura microscópica da matéria (Microcosmologia) e olharmos para cima (Macrocosmologia) usando a Astronomia. Acredito que estamos inseridos em um campo de energia consciente, ao invés de imaginar que você tem um ``Espírito´´ você é um espírito materializado em matéria orgânica, ou matéria semicondensada dentro de um campo quântico.
The presence of a God would be the definite clue that we are in a simulated universe because this magic being with incredible powers would have no clue how he came to be & how he is able to create all this magical worlds. He thinks all he his doing is real but doesn't realize all this doing is inside a computer!
Fortunately for us, so far we have not seen any evidence of this magic being, so maybe we are living in a real world
80% of this was Brian's comedy skit. I was hoping to hear more about Richard's view on this topic.
Why are people in the audience laughing at the idea of us living in a simulation like it’s an impossible idea?
Because it is no different an explanation for things than God created everything.
@@ejtattersall156 It's a possibility. Just like God is a possibility. Whenever someone mentions God nobody laughs.
Same could be said for a "PROGRAM"....
A creator (coder) would type all those complex strings of code for a software to behave and look a certain way. In a way, a creationalist would think that God is the Programer and us and the universe is a software simulation that runs off of complex coding....
I always think of the sims game
If it was a simulation everyone would have PornStars and Lamborghinis
I know nothing, other than that I know nothing. My pal knows - because he told me so - that there is nothing, either before or after your own life. When you’re gone, that’s it. I don’t know that, though accept it’s a possibility, so spend my time wondering about where life originated and what happens after we die. So, I guess, I do know something, I know I wonder. I also hope/wish, so that’s something else I know - I know I hope and wish. Bloody brilliant. At this rate, if I just keep on writing, I’ll end up knowing just about everything. But I won’t do that, so……………. X
It dosent matter. Also, either way existence started with time not a creator.😊👍
Blood. Tissue. How? Oh & the needing a computer the size of the universe for it to work... O-K....
