Hi all, this is nothing serious just a thought...actually a dream i had.

If we are in an illusion… could there be a being or beings watching and enjoying us like some interactive movie or video game? A video game is also an illusion, but created by human beings. We create; manipulate the characters and environments in these illusions as if we were the gods. Have you ever thought the characters in these games have feelings too? After all, we do give them life and the appearance to show emotions, right? How much do we care about these characters? If this is all an illusion, and we are all created in God’s likeness…could the way we perceive our digital created avatars as entertainment be the same way our creators view us…as their entertainment? If so, then there may be clues to how the creator thinks and why things are the way they are.

This is just a thought, hope it makes some sense.

Yeah, I was the kid always playing outside of the sandbox while others stayed trained within it.
