However, iirc, it generally appears to be expanding at the same speed away from us in every direction, and has no spin, thus revolves around nothing.

Here's another thing to consider. The red shift is not smooth https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshift_quantization

Some have theorized that the quantized red-shift corresponds with excited/falling electron orbitals instead of speed. Makes sense but that'd mean earth is in the middle of the universe
replied 2250d
There's a high probability that the Earth is the center of our universe (that would be consistent with the theory that we're 'living' in a simulation. One of 'many' simulations)

"The simulation" is a PC term for intelligent design. If you believe in the simulation you necessarily must believe in a simulator. Then you have to talk about that being's character.

Not a being, just the first base reality human beings. They run simulations on their origins and development with altered variables for various reasons.

I mean you realize this ultra smart "human being" who's running this simulation made the simlatees(us) in their own image? You're just describing Christianity.
replied 2250d
"Ultra Smart" for us, but base reality Humans (plural) advanced millions of years beyond us should easily be able to create simulations to analyze alternate progressions.

Riddle me this - what physical laws govern the universe that "base reality Humans" inhabit? Are they not just the ones you wish that this universe had but apparently doesn't?
replied 2249d
I would guess the physical laws would be similar, but maybe some quantum principles and effects may not exist in base reality. They may be quirks, or artifacts of the simulations.

What's your motivation for believing we live in/are a simulation?

What do you think about wave theory? I think I like it because it wrecks a lot of the dumb cosmological models.

I have not read much about it. I'll look into it thanks

haha wow guys. op was about infowars being banned. & you've ended up talking about if were in a simulation. lol love how meandering memo discussions are.

Ahhhh, so your God is technology. Though somehow our "true selves" have managed to simulate consciousness in us but avoid an AI singularity? Very interesting religion you got there.
replied 2249d
Personally i think we are base reality. But there's a real probability of living in a sim. I don't think an AI singularity will happen, but if so the AI would be running the sim(s)

So a human being is not a being?
replied 2251d
stuff that has given us us a better understanding of the universes shape / it's center? I feel like probably have. (and I probably should've learned this in astronomy class haha)

Interesting. I know red shift is how we first suspected an expanding universe, but is there further evidence from studying cosmic radiation background (really old light) or other...
