If you think it to the end, existence of an aftlerlife would be evidence that we run in a simulation.

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Friend of mine (who is dead now ironically enough, and damn, I miss him), wrote a story about this. Where the dead show up on some random planet in the Andromeda Galaxy, in their prime, one that's infinitely large and does the minecraft thing where it generates as you go, and contains the means to do pretty much anything except for leave... with them just showing up in the Capital City of the planet if they die again, which cannot be done of natural causes here.

The dead initially think it's Heaven, but then they notice "Heaven" is being powered by a Dyson Sphere, eventually they connect enough of the dots to realize that their world is a simulation.

The protagonist is the grandchild of one of the deceased who wound up here after testing experimental teleportation technology, turns out the simulation brought him there to inform him why teleportation technology shouldn't be invented.

Eventually the grandchild goes back to Earth, agreeing to keep this a secret, for fear that if people knew about this it would create "Dyson Sphere cults" and would encourage people to commit mass suicide, just "dying to get there"

My thought was more like, then there must be god, that god must have been created (since not naturally developed) so he must be there for a reason (administrator or something) so there must be a system behind it.

But nice story!

How did you come to that conclusion?
