Is The Physical Realm Analogous To A Simulated Reality?

[Idolater]

Why is it that you end all of your conversations this way? Do you think it lends weight to your position call everyone else imbeciles? What it does is show the limits of your capacity to communicate. Do better Clete. I know you can.

Good bye!!!!!!

Do you want to fight me?

I wanted to discuss the issue you brought up and debate it as best I know how. You respond to that with insults.

Just go believe whatever the hell you want. You're going to anyway! See if anyone here gives a damn. I know I won't.

I'll try to recap a couple key points that are relevant to the OP, and summarize how this thread evolved from there.

First of all, analogous means "similar or comparable to in some way". I'll give you two reasons I view the physical realm as being analogous to a simulated reality, according what the Bible teaches, which I already gave elsewhere in this thread which, for some reason you feel oblidged to comment on without even reading it.

1. Things that are spiritual, supersede things that are physical
2. This physical realm will are currently in, will be destroyed.

That about it. It's not really that important. It's just something to talk about. No analogy is perfect and I think @Idolater has already done a pretty good job in showing in what ways this model doesn't work. And @Derf made some very interesting points involving death and the relationship between the spirit and the body.
ie.

Why do you think people are resurrected when Christ returns? If freedom from the constraints of the physical body is good, why reintroduce such constraints?

Afterwards I think this discussion geared itself more to being about what death is and I also suggested that the brain is an interface between the body and spirit. I quoted Paul, @Right Divider got mad and said I shouldn't take Paul literally. I got mad back at RD and posted a pic of an angry sock puppet, @Ps82 said she thought the sock puppet was cute and then Idolater made a reply to something I had said earlier. Then you came and started acting like a jerk.

That's about it bud.
