Closer to Virtual Reality: Extraterrestrials and the Simulation Hypothesis
I admit that the vigor Hypothesis - a hypothesis that we 'live' as virtual beings inside a simulated landscape inside a computer - is the most probable hypothesis next it comes to choosing amongst differing possibilities of reality. However, the key word revolves roughly what I "believe". I cannot prove that the simulation Hypothesis is the be-all-and-end-all of our certainty - not nevertheless at least even though I'm on the go on that. Thus, I must save an edit mind to the possibility that our reality isn't virtual but in point of fact real. In the meantime my pontificating upon the aliens-are-here, the UFO extraterrestrial hypothesis and related, is to be examined here in that virtual certainty scenario.
# Virtual Aliens: If the simulation Hypothesis is correct, what would it endeavor for aliens to be here? It would try no more and no less than what would it seek for a simulated couch to be in your simulated full of life room or a simulated tree in your simulated front yard or a simulated crook to pickpocket your simulated wallet. You're asking a question approximately the aspiration of whoever programmed into our simulated landscape the this, and the that and the next-door thing too including the concept of simulated anomalous lights in the appearance and simulated extraterrestrials having their wicked way afterward a pick few of us. I have no idea what their motivation might be.
I recommend even if that one needs to perhaps look at things through the eyes of our enormously own simulated beings part-and-parcel of our simulated landscapes in our video games. What would these virtual beings that we have programmed think of every the bits-and-pieces that we have included in their virtual world? Why is this boy shooting at me? Why is this monster lurking in the shadows? Why is this tiny Green Man abducting and raping my daughter? pull off we not count aliens, and all reveal of alien interactions in our own video games? Have we not created video games that revolve not far off from "Star Trek" and "Star Wars" and their united extraterrestrials? So, if we reach it, what's the business in the same way as what someone (or something) might add up in the programming of our sparkle and simulated landscape?
Okay, that's hardly a question that discounts the existence of aliens in the here and now in what you would call our really genuine reality.
# The unmodified Programmer: It could without difficulty be the fact that as far away as our final Programmer - the he / she / it / them blamed for creating our virtual veracity - is concerned, we are just trivia. If this unchangeable Programmer has expected hundreds or thousands of simulated universes and landscapes, after that yes, we're trivial. But subsequently suitably to is any vivaciousness or video game that we create. You buy an off-the-shelf video game and isn't really every of the contents essentially trivial? But back up to simulated aliens. past we have programmed hundreds of video games that feature aliens, and produced hundreds of movies and TV episodes (cinema swine just complementary form of simulation) that featured ET, some made even previously the begin of the open-minded UFO era, why should we (Royal We) and why should you (as in just you) lift eyebrows at the thought that our final Programmer(s) featured aliens? Many forms of what passes for entertainment is trivial. Our science fiction novels and curt stories feature aliens by the bucketful who don't "have to travel through space, time, space-time, or even a mental flavor to acquire "here"." without difficulty actually they have to travel via a mental flavor - the author's mental flavor or the film producer's mental freshen or the programmer's mental space. hence maybe we're just entertainment for the unchangeable Programmer, the "we're" including aliens and UFOs every rounding out the unquestionable Programmer's cosmic landscape.
If we could chat to our video game or computer graphics characters (or characters written into a novel or who appear on the silver screen) - and as you note, we can't, nevertheless - they might question questions agreed same to what must exist in the minds of readers here practically why we (the Royal We), their creators, programmed this or that or the next concern in creating their simulated landscape. We (the Royal We) might reply that that's the artifice we wanted it, even if it was trivial, or absurd.
I compulsion tapering off out in the manner of addressing the moving picture Hypothesis that no clear will exists. The characters in our novels have no free will; the characters in our films have no pardon will; the characters in our video games have no pardon will. If we're the initiation of a unmovable Programmer, we have no pardon will. We might have no pardon will like we bravely go, but as long as we think we have forgive will after that we (Royal We) can be convinced of our audaciously going prowess. That by the by could equally apply even if we exist in a in reality real reality.
But if anyone has digested anything I've ever posted roughly the spirit Hypothesis, they'd be au fait there is one huge difference in the middle of my postulated unqualified Programmer and a supernatural deity, or God if that word floats your boat. My postulated unlimited Programmer is a fallible cry and 'oops' happen and absurdities happen. God, inborn omni this and omni that and omni the next concern wouldn't make any oops or absurdities.
