That is pretty much how Revelation ends.

The physical universe or hologram is a projection of the collective ego. It is perceived but is not real.

More like God speaking the the universe coming into existence.

Maybe the constant HUM of God's voice is the Planck Floor.

The physical universe/hologram/projection of the collective ego is real.

However, it cannot be quantified because it changes massively from instant to instant.

Life is like a box of chocolates. So is the Universe. Which proceeded from the Bible saying, "as above, so below".

Is opposition to it because of the money,,,or because of fear of what it might discover? I think it’s the latter.

Rewrite the last sentence: if they end up showing that the universe is a 2-D illusion it will pretty much confirm the existance of a Supreme Being/Creator who built it.


Or that we are nothing but a video game created in a super intelligent extraterrestrial kids computer.

Remember these two episodes of Star Trek-Next Generation, where the holodeck creations realize they aren’t real?

“#3. The Holodeck Creates (and Then Destroys) Hundreds of Sentient Beings”

“When Picard is playing 1920s detective dress-up during one of his holodeck jaunts, the computer-generated people he interacts with begin to realize that they aren’t real. One of them asks Picard:

“When you’re gone, will this world still exist? Will my wife and kids still be waiting for me at home?”

And then there was the episode where Data and LaForge play Sherlock Holmes and Watson, and Moriety comes to the realization that he is not real. The phrase “i think, therefore i am” does not apply to them. They can think, have emotions, have past memories, but they are not “am.” Scary stuff.

Which is still consistent with the existence of a Supreme Being/Creator.

It's just that God turns out to be ... a super intelligent extraterrestrial kid who created a video game in his computer.

Ok, I've NEVER had a desire to try pot. Until right now ...

I’m still working on trying to figure out if “perception is reality”. So far, I don’t think it is.

Sort of. The cave cast shadows of life outside the cave. The fear of genuine reality keep those who dwell in the dark from facing truth. This is the foundation of Marxism. It demands exclusive knowledge of reality and destroys any who transgresses its belief system.
