I always laugh at people who say it's a simulation.

1000 years ago, people thought we were on the back of a giant turtle. Why? They knew turtles back then. And these days, we know computers. Writing it off as a simulation is no different than the people who thought we're on the back of a turtle. Just limiting what is possible.

Imagine thinking were NOT on the back of a giant turtle. I mean, cmon.

Difference being, the capacity for creating a simulation filled with intelligent design actually exists, whereas the capacity for people living on the back of a turtle doesn't

We can already make simulations, albeit primitive ones. We can't make people live on the back of a turtle.

If we can do that, who's to say we aren't in one someone else made already?

That's what the simulation wants you to think

That's theistic evolution or evolutionary creationism. Which I think are two similar but different beliefs.

If you want to deny the existence of God based on the Biblical account, fine. But the fact remains that the oldest, human writings that we have are cuneiform tablets from Sumer/Babylon, in which it tells the story of the Anunnaki coming to Earth and creating humans by manipulating DNA.

There is no older, known story of the origin of humans on the planet; at least none that is made public (the Smithsonian and the Vatican archives may have more information).

Yes to an extent, but I tend to hate these topics because some people automatically assume the intelligent designer is the Judeo Christian God from the Abrahamic religions.

Which video? I don't think you can "prove" the existence or non-existence of God. That's why it's called faith. I have faith that God and Jesus exist. I do think it's interesting that the oldest, known human writings from Sumer/Babylon is where we get the original stories about Eden (aka Eridu), being(s) who created humans, the story of Noah, etc.

I believe we might one day have the answers if we trust in scientific method and keep looking. Unlikely thought it may be the universe could be a product of an intelligent designer, however if I was to say it probably is right now without any evidence to support that view I would be a fucking idiot.
