Simulated Reality I came across this idea a short while ago and began to wonder if it actually can be true. Are we living in a simulated world? Is what we experience only a representation of reality and not the original thing? Sometimes a person can find small errors in the simulation that are corrected or that are left as is. An example that I had many years ago: My daughter took a bus to visit us one day and I offered her some of my orange flavored Tic Tac candy. She told me a man on the bus she just left also offered her some orange flavored Tic Tacs. Was it only a coincidence? Another example: At 911 I'm sure I saw on TV the terrorist planes as they crashed into the World Trade Center buildings. Later I learned the event was not shown on TV at the time I saw it. Was it only a video I was confused about? The Monopoly game man is a common example experienced by many people. He never had a monocle. Anyway here's a video that explains it much better: Do you have any experiences...

  What if the simulated reality went back in a series until it reached the primary creator? Would it be God? Here's an interesting video:

  (I edited this image is from Web) I had a dream last night that seemed so real. It was not the first time I dreamt of  a dark solid stone building. Set back away from the street by a moderately long driveway. It was as fearsome as it was somehow inviting. Curiosity got the better of me. I went inside. It was uninhabited and had a steady slow cold draft running through the hallway, scary. Up the wide stone stairs, I was halfway up to the next floor when I woke. I was sure the building was somewhere in our neiborhood. My wife was sure it was only a dream and that she never saw such a building. But what if the building did somehow exist? Does reality exist only while we are awake? Two very short videos: Are we living in a virtual reality?
