Reality

It's all speculation

When humanity first opened its eyes—whether you trace that moment back to Adam and Eve in the garden or to the earliest humans wandering the ancient world—one thing was certain: the universe felt alive. Every rustling tree, every flash of lightning, every unexplained event carried intention. Meaning. Presence.

How else could early humans explain their existence?

They had no science, no economics, no physics, no mathematics. All they had was awareness—raw and unfiltered—and a world full of forces beyond their understanding. Naturally, they concluded the universe was made by Gods… or a single God. There was no competing hypothesis. No “Big Bang.” No “simulation.” No “quantum field.” The only possible explanation for existence was divine creation.

That idea dominated humanity for thousands of years. It didn’t just shape religion; it shaped culture, politics, morality, and identity. It became the foundation for civilization itself.

But does dominance equal truth?

The early scriptures, oral traditions, and sacred writings—from Genesis to the stories of Moses and Jesus, and the countless mythologies across the globe—were produced in a time when there was only one worldview available. The universe had no scientific framework. There were no tools to measure, no equations to test, no deeper layers to peel back. Miracles and myths were the only vocabulary humanity possessed to describe events that seemed supernatural.

And that’s why the belief in God, or gods, became amplified through clergy, tribal leaders, and emerging institutions. They were the interpreters of mystery. If something extraordinary happened, it could only be labeled a miracle or a myth. Nothing else fit.

Then the world changed.

By the 17th century, the Scientific Revolution erupted. Suddenly reality was no longer a series of divine interventions—it was a machine governed by laws. Gravity, motion, planetary orbits, optics… the universe behaved with structure. Predictability. Mathematics replaced myth. Not entirely—belief in God still dominated—but the certainty began to crack.

From 1900 to 1960, Modern Cosmology took center stage. Einstein, Planck, Hubble, and others redefined everything we thought we knew. The universe wasn’t static—it had a beginning. A singularity. An explosive expansion that came to be known as the Big Bang. For the first time in history, science offered a rival creation story, one that didn’t require divine intervention at all.

Then came the next revolution.

The Quantum Era revealed that the building blocks of reality didn’t behave like matter at all. They behaved like information. The observer influenced the observed. Measurement affected outcome. Space and time were no longer rigid; they were flexible, probabilistic, and coded with rules we barely understood. And all of this was happening just as the computer age began—right when humanity gained the ability to peer inside the structure of reality with new technological eyes.

And this is where something crucial becomes obvious:

The pace of human understanding had accelerated dramatically.

For tens of thousands of years, humanity lived under a single explanation—divine creation. Then in just a few hundred years, science replaced myth. In a few decades, relativity replaced classical physics. In a few decades more, quantum mechanics replaced relativity as the deepest mystery. And today, the simulation hypothesis is rising in less than a generation.

Our learning curve isn’t linear—it’s exponential.

Technology has become the great accelerator. Every tool we create reveals a layer of reality we never knew existed. Telescopes showed us other galaxies. Particle accelerators showed us subatomic rules. Computers and quantum devices are now showing us patterns, structures, and behaviors that look less like a cosmic accident and more like… code.

Which brings us to now.

We stand at the frontier of the simulation hypothesis, a theory that fuses physics, information theory, mathematics, and even ancient spiritual intuitions. With quantum computing, artificial intelligence, and our understanding of the universe becoming more complex by the year, the idea of a programmed reality is no longer speculative—it’s scientifically plausible.

This is where I stand.

In my view, a simulation isn’t just possible—it’s the only explanation that truly fits. I don’t know who built it, who runs it, or why it exists. I don’t claim to understand the architecture behind it or the consciousness responsible for it. But I do know this:

The universe is far more complex than our infant-like explanations allow.

And every step we’ve taken—spirit, gods, science, information, quantum physics—has brought us closer to the same realization:

Reality is not what it seems. And we’re learning that truth faster than ever before.
