And rather than say something special, to the degree that it is standardized, what those interactions contain, it makes it much easier to detect the part that's important, which is the tone, the cadence, all of those things. How was your day? Fine. Exactly. Yeah. Exactly.

Well, let's put it this way. I've seen another version of this where you won't expect it. The many universes theory of quantum mechanics. Yep. You know this? Yep. So the basics are that in order to reconcile some of the oddities that quantum mechanics has discovered, we imagine that in every instant there is a universe spawned for every conceivable outgrowth.

And so, you know, if I pick up this pen, there's a universe in which I didn't and a universe in which I did. And those universes go on to do whatever they do, right? Right. This is a spectacularly simple explanation linguistically. It is the opposite of simple in terms of what it implies.

You're going to create a universe for every conceivable nuance of interaction that every creature, every pebble that rolled down a hill, you're creating universes at this rate? That's not simple. That's complex at a level that's beyond extreme.

And so my sense, and again, I'm not arguing that this isn't the better way to live, but my sense is when you say the simplest explanation is a creator who wasn't created, yeah, linguistically it doesn't get simpler than that. It's one sentence and you're done. At the level of what it means...

it's almost inconceivably what does it mean for something capable of creating a universe not to have come into existence right right i can't even imagine what that means right well it is inconceivable i mean that's that's why you're the created not the creator right but and and again i'm not hostile to this position i don't think you are that's why but my point would be

The question of did the universe start with a creator is not one that you are likely to derive some practical value from spending your time on. In fact, you could waste your entire life, make no progress, and be detained from all of the other things you might have done.

So it would be useful for most humans throughout most of history to have had a simple explanation that simply allowed them to move on to questions where there was some profit to be made or peril to be avoided. You want not to be stuck on questions where there's no profit. potential value in your exploration.
