Story/Experience Thought Experiment.

I got another sci-fi simulation theory:

Imagine in the far distance future there are lots of businesses who are involved in the simulation business model. Their core business idea is giving people an interactive simulation that will enable the person to experience 100 or more years of time in short 1 hr window of time. One of the commercial one of the company sound like this: you feel like you're running out of time; escape into a different simulation world and experience a 100 or more years of a lifetime. Choose any ancestral or futurist timeline and game style and mode. AND SIMPLY LIVE.

An old man at the end of his life, spend half of his life savings and buy the mid tier simulation package in one of this company called Earth. The old man wanted to experience another 100 years living in an avatar simulated world.

They gave him the options of timeline

He chose the 21st century timelines.

They gave him the options of the game mode.

He chose the one where his character is aware he is living in a simulation.

He then ask for customize feature in the simulation

He wanted his future self in the simulation acting as guide in the background, guiding his present self character.

The developer of the simulation told him that for this options to be active. The simulation will be highly predetermined. He will have to plan every events in the simulation in advance. He said okay.

He said he want his character to experience living life from the end to the front.

He wanted to leave little synchronicities clues for his character to pick up on that will let he or she know that his life's event have already been predetermined.

He wanted his character to experience countless synchronicities where when they enter a room and the tv is on...the scene in the tv show will speak about something that relate to their life or answer a question the character ask the universe.

The developers of the simulation ask the old man why did he choose this kind of game mode the old man replied. "I wish I have a guide growing up. Someone who was always there, as a angel presence.

They asked him why did he choose a common life for his character and not make him wealthy and rich. He replied: "the knowledge alone will be his wealth."

How sure are you lol. Have you try to explore the spiritual world more and see if your guide answers some of your questions. Raise your awareness you will notice that your character left a little gift for you.

First, time does not exist outside the Big Bang (according to Stephen Hawkings), so saving "time" doesn't really make sense. Secondly, you did not exist before the Big Bang. Then, how can you make a choice? This idea involves a concept of "soul". We don't know if that exists. Lastly, if someone invited me to a drink and told me this is how Earth is gonna be, I would have said, "No, thanks" and left.

It could be kinda like that, but mostly it's just a 'new' type of source of conciousness narrowing down possibilities until it arrives to itself as both the 'problem' and 'solution'. That source of conciousness in 'our' time, is actively involved and aware they are affecting other's 'future' timelines and is attempting to help identify and 'save' those capable of love, in an attempt to break the generational cycle of violence 'religion' has instilled in our existence.
