Some days I was reading about a guy called Frank Tipler, and I was mesmerised by what he said. He said that eventually, all the universe will collapse and will reach a critical point called the omega universe. At that time, we will have vast reserves of energy and as the light from the entire universe from when is was created will be able to be observed. This lead him to say that the human being at that time will create computers that have the potential to stimulate life. Thus, he asked the question
ARE WE LIVING IN A COMPUTER SIMULATION?
But then he argued that this universe is not perfect and their is suffering, the being who will create the program will be omniscient, thus suggesting beyong the limits of physics, philosophy and theology, that he will be GOD. Hence, he will be benevolent and not simulate suffering. Finally, as I read dumb-struck, Frank Tipler postulated we will never die. After our death, we will again be born in a computer simulation, with our parents, etc and be immortal. I spent the whole day awed by it, and excited by it. As the person dead cant feel, even if that program is created after trillion years, he will feel he has been reborn instaneously, like samsara in Hinduism.
MIND BOOGLING, Isnt it?
