| John Lennon Peace Momument (PD) |
Could it be possible that life as we know it is just a computer simulation? Could it be possible that some higher form of intelligence is enjoying and maneuvering our feats and foibles?
According to renowned physicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, the answer is yes. And not just
a tiny yes, but a 50-50 possibility “that our entire existence is a program on someone else’s hard drive.”
According to Tyson, that “someone” need not be all powerful, just way more powerful than humans.
That someone need not be perfect either, or even benevolent. That
someone could theoretically be a half-crazed evil entity.
But what’s on the other side of 50-50? Could it be that there’s way more good than evil? Could it
be that goodness will eventually triumph?
John Lennon once said: “Everything
will be okay in the end, if it’s not okay, it’s not the end.” So why not bet on that?
