What do we call the people who created the simulation? Is it unreasonable that they would give us stories to impose their own morals on us? Maybe they have a punishment or a reward for you depending on your qualities, such as getting to live in the host universe or getting stuck in an undesirable environment.

I’m more partial to God being Humans that survived the flood (being real and caused by an asteroid exploding over ice caps) and have been chilling underwater, occasionally popping their UAPs up and poking around. But I don’t hold that view too firmly.
