No, I am not at all like Jim Jones
I have - by three separate people on three separate occasions - been accused of operating a cult
Nonsense!
I do not want to control anyone and I don't want anyone's money!
Hence I am not a cult
I am but a conduit for the higher power that I serve
I ask only to be heard and considered
Also, I have no followers.
And there is no such thing as a one-man cult
By definition a cult is an organisation so must consist of more than one individual
And no, my handful of social media followers don't count as "members" of anything, let alone as members of a cult
Also, I am not charismatic enough to be a cult leader, I assure you that in person I am quite dull
I could never inspire anyone to follow me into Hell and back!
So, no. I don't want your money. And I don't want to control you or tell you how to live your life, or even tell you what is right and what is wrong
That is not my business
I am but a conduit
A servant
An agent
I do not even want to be a leader!
Which is good, because I lead nothing! Not even myself!

Why not judge for yourself whether or not I'm running a cult?
I share and do in fact follow many of your beliefs, I certainly don't consider you to be a cult. Indications of us living in a simulation have only recently been discovered by scientists. As technology advances, and scientists become closer to being able to model and read a simulation of human consciousness, the simulation hypothesis will become more widely accepted.
Maybe it's indeed lights out and game over for everybody after ionic currents stop flowing across their brains' neurons, but who among us know for sure their characters won't be reanimated or re-simulated by God?
A study conducted by Henry Markram and his team at the Blue Brain project have successfully simulated elements of a rat’s neocortical column, a complex layer of brain tissue common to all mammalian species. " Henry Markram at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne and his team built their model based on experimental measurements of rat brain slices. The simulation represents roughly 37 million synapses, or neuronal connections, in the brain region that receives sensory information from the whiskers and other parts of the body. Using the model, the team simulated rat whisker movement and saw similar neuronal responses to those observed in rat experiments."
Computer model of rat-brain part - Nature.
I realize a computer simulation of a rat's neocortical column is nowhere near the complexity of a computer simulation of an entire living human brain, but this does demonstrate at least a bit of progress so far being made towards an entire human brain's consciousness being simulated by a computer.
Perhaps when scientists have figured out how to read the actual results of a consciousness simulation, then the simulation hypothesis will become a widely accepted theory.
Until then, I suppose the simulation hypothesis will mostly have its doubters. Simulated Suave lets out a big sigh!
I concur with Nick Bostrom's reasoning why we are very likely living in a simulated reality.
Bostrom argues that at least ONE of the following propositions
must be true:
(1) The human species is very likely to go extinct before reaching a “posthuman” stage.
(2) Any posthuman civilization is extremely unlikely to run a significant number of simulations of their evolutionary history (or variations thereof).
(3) We are almost certainly living in a computer simulation.
Since there is a significant chance that a future generation of technologically advanced post-humans will run ancestor-simulations by powerful computers, then we are almost certainly living in a computer simulation.
Indications we might be living in a simulated reality:
1. A particle passing through a double-slit behaves as a wave causing an interference pattern when unobserved, but this same particle doesn't create an interference pattern when its path of travel can be determined by an observer. This collapse of the wave-function could be happening in order to save computational resources necessary for our simulated reality.
2. This mark of intelligence left in our genetic coding might be indicative of an intelligent designer, who may be responsible for the simulation of our reality. Our genetic code's creator has left this mathematical pattern in our genetic code conveying to me the symbol of an Egyptian triangle as well as the number 37 embedded in our genetic code.
Eight of the canonical amino acids can be sufficiently defined by the composition of their codon's first and second base nucleotides. The nucleon sum of these amino acids' side chains is 333 (=37 * 3 squared), the sun of their block nucleons (basic core structure) is 592 (=37 * 4 squared), and the sum of their total nucleons is 925 (=37 * 5 squared ). With 37 factored out, this results in 3 squared + 4 squared + 5 squared, which is representative of an Egyptian triangle.
I would not expect there to be a mathematical depiction of an Egyptian triangle stored within genetic coding if it were a naturally occurring phenomenon. The mathematical pattern of the number 37 being used as a key factor for conveying an Egyptian triangle might related to the gematria value of 37 appearing in the Hebrew language of
Genesis 1:1.
3. Theoretical physicist Dr. S. James Gates Jr. claims that a certain string theory, super-symmetrical equations describing the nature and reality of our universe, contains embedded computer codes; these codes have digital data in the form of 0's and 1's identical to what makes web browsers function, and they're error-correct codes.
In conclusion, with the wave-function collapsing in order to conserve computational power of a simulator device, a semantic message in genetic coding, and the computer coding found buried deep within the mathematical equations of super symmetry., seems to me like we are living in a simulation.
