Humans can sometimes be defined by their irrationality. Consider the likely propositions that most humans believe in:
- There was a big bang whose origin remains unknown but resulted in the sequence of events that led to the creation of conscious entities.
- There is nothing supernatural about consciousness. It is a physical entity just like gravity or electromagnetism.
- It can be represented as a computation just like any other physical phenomena.
It should be a logical conclusion that some conscious entities which are billions of years more advanced than homo sapiens should be able to create a simulated reality. And similarly these advanced entities are themselves part of a larger simulation; which is inside an even bigger simulation ad infinitum. With infinitely many simulations inside others, it's a logical conclusion that you too, human live in a simulation; quod erat demonstrandum.
