As in row row row your boat...gently down the stream...merrily, merilly, merilly, merilly...life is but a dream?
Is it possible that there are limits to our acquisition of knowledge? Is the idea that we are living in a simulation actually a non traditional religious belief?

I'm not sure if it is a religious/non-religious belief but I know I have heard more than one reputable scientist posit we are possibly living in a computer simulation. Did God devise this to see if we are grown up enough to live in the real world?

When we get too close to discovering how the simulation works, everything dissolves into quantum wierdness. Is God the source of the simulation?

It is difficult to push knowledge past intellect.
