I never said it violated any laws of physics, but within a computer simulation you could easily have a simulated God with the power to change the simulation or people walking on water etc.
You supported your claim with the statement “every nonzero thing has to happen,” which, on its face, ignores the constraint of the laws of physics. You haven’t shown that your claim is compatible with the laws of physics as we understand them, and for a claim of “100% inevitability” that burden of proof is on you. The physical possibility of that level of simulation is far from a settled question.
And again, even if this claim is true, it doesn’t imply or equate to the actual truth of any religion.
The statement that “every non-zero thing has to happen” in this context obviously refers to the wavefunction of QM.
I am not arguing FOR the simulation hypothesis, but I thought it was generally accepted that simulation is possible… And IF it is, then due to the non-zero of MWI (if MWI IS TRUE) automatically means that these absurd simulations HAS to exist.
I never said that this would equate to actual truth of any religion. I am as atheistic as one can possibly be. Obviously these would not be actual Gods in the sense that they are supernatural, but they would be so pragmatically WITHIN this simulation.
The statement that “every non-zero thing has to happen” in this context obviously refers to the wavefunction of QM.
Clearly, that was not obvious to me. There is a common misunderstanding that many worlds implies that “everything is possible,” and that statement seemed to match this pattern.
I thought it was generally accepted that simulation is possible...
It is accepted by many, but it has not been demonstrated to the level where solely postulating many worlds qualifies as an acceptable argument for your point.
I never said that this would equate to actual truth of any religion.
I am not sure how else I could have been expected to interpret “then all religions has to be true (in a simulation).”

Well, I am sorry for being so sloppy with my answer. But it seems we have cleared it up.
Now I would love to see you answer Mitchell_Porters question
