    I’d like to visit, but Thailand, Vietnam, Bali, and Japan look more enticing.



  • God cannot be refuted nor confirmed. It’s like unicorns, elves, dragons, and many other myths: we have not seen proof of their existence, nor have any claimed proofs of their existence been confirmed to be a valid, but that doesn’t rule out that we will never find proof.

    Such is my understanding science: there is no absolute certainty nor absolute confidence. I think only logical fallacies might never exist e.g an all-powerful creator immediately runs into the logical problem of “can god create a rock that it itself cannot lift?”.

    But what if our universe were just a simulation within a machine of a highly advanced species? Their ability to modify the simulation to their will might make them akin to gods for us, but that also incurs the question: what if they were in a simulation themselves? That can be repeated to the root until a “real world” is reached, but that still leaves the question: how did everything come to be?
    We can thus cut out all the “if god exists, who created god” and focus on a world without the need to get distracted by the god problem.
