[dschiptsov]

The evil demon which Descartes described is very real - it is one's own mind conditioned by dogmas, traditions and so called collective consciousness, and the illusions that such a mind produces are as good as real.

Simulations can tell nothing new about the true nature of reality, because any simulator would reflect the current assumptions up to date and will be based on an oversimplified model. Weather simulation is not a weather. Map is not a territory.
