Creation vs. Simulation
One of the most dangerous shifts in thinking today, is subtle but profound:
From: “I am made in the image of God.”
To: “I am a digital avatar, in a system built by higher intelligences.”
From: “The heavens declare the glory of God.”
To: “The universe is just high-resolution code.”
From: “God formed me in my mother’s womb.”
To: “My consciousness is just neurons firing; or maybe code?”
Simulation Theory offers a kind of truth, but only a half-truth, and half-truths are the enemy’s specialty.
The real danger isn’t in questioning reality that is healthy, and necessary. The danger is in replacing the Creator with a coder. In trading, divine meaning for digital mechanics. In rejecting God, in favour of gods of our own making; be they machines, aliens, or ourselves.
Reclaiming the Narrative
Here’s the good news.
What if the reason Simulation Theory resonates with so many people, is simply because we already know something’s wrong?
What if we can sense that this world has been tampered with, that it’s not the full story? What if Simulation Theory is the wrong answer to the right question?
Because the real question isn’t, “Are we in a simulation?”
The real question is: What has been done to God's creation, and who is trying to keep us from seeing it?
The biblical worldview doesn’t deny that this world feels artificial, corrupted, and broken.
In fact, it confirms it.
“The whole creation groans…” (Romans 8:22)
“For now we see through a glass, darkly…” (1 Corinthians 13:12)
We’re in a fallen world. A corrupted system, a broken code, but this isn’t a simulation without purpose.
It’s a battlefield.
And the war is for your soul.
