Model #1 The dream world:

1. Potentiality ---> Awareness ---��> Consciousness ---��> Mind----> Matter, energy, space, Time ---> evolution. --->��mineral, plant, animal, humanoid.



Model #2 The virtual computer simulation:

1. The Programmers ----> The digital Matrix program is written and installed into the computer mind--->the power is turned on ----> Programs are activated----> programs for matter, energy space and time create environments---> biological life form programs activated for evolution ----> Evolution happens in an instant because there are no users. Users log in -----> and time is activated.

Model #3 is the NESTED virtual reality simulation.

Each level of virtual reality contains only a subset of the "ultimate" reality (which by necessity must exist), so each deeper level contains fewer elements corresponding to the ultimate reality and (presumably) more elements of "fantasy" taken a real by the programs which consider themselves sentient.

"We" (and I use the term loosely...there may only be one, or even none of us, depending on your point of view) are in all probability at some "nth" nesting of virtual reality, and therefore have no idea what things have a correspondence to the ultimate reality. we don't even know if homo sapiens does, as it may simply be a creative and totally artificial pseudo-life-form in an unreal cyberspace.

I may have seen a movie similar to this model. :wink:

I've always found pseudoscience weird, since it's not really science, and it's not really philosophy.
