Neil deGrasse Tyson thinks there?s a ?very high? chance the universe is just a simulation

We are ?almost definitely? living in a Matrix-style simulation, claims Elon Musk

They are basicallly saying they believe in a god or creator because someone or something had to create the simulation and that someone or something is effectively "god".
Let's assume some entity outside the natural world created the Universe. Obviously, they didn't have much more to do with it after that. Other than watching it develop for itself.

As for the Earth and Homo Sapiens. Zero evidence. So what is very provable is all the religions that have sprung up and our concept of a god-type entity is complete bull shit. So once you disprove the concept of a god. Why believe any god exists?As for a Matrix-style simulation.
