The issue he's talking about can be pretty easily illustrated with "turtles all the way down". A simulation must be, by definition, simulated by something that is external to the simulation itself. If this isn't infinitely recursive somehow, then there must be an instance that is not a simulation. This is the uber-reality he speaks of. |

It all depends of the definition of gods, like I said, if it's omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, etc.. then I feel like we can consider it our god which would include the one that made our simulation. That would means that they would respect that definition of gods towards us. In the same way, nothing stop gods from having gods themselves. I don't know too much about gods but don't some Greeks gods had some sort of power over each other? It's all relative in a way.
I'm also not actually believing it's the truth too, I'm just acknowledging the possibilities. I don't believe usual religions because I find it hard to believe their "why". The computer simulation does have a why that I believe could be a possibility.
