MEGAGOD B E L I E F S
No one knows for sure how the universe and all it contains was created.
There is no shortage of people who believe for certain they know such answers and that they are right and all other systems of beliefs are wrong. All claims made on this website, though written with conviction, are merely my beliefs.
(with a chance that I am right and you are wrong) ;)

It's All a Game
Nothing is Real & Everything is Real
The Earth Challenge
Our world is nothing more than a game created and played by those we would regard as supernatural. They are the Players. They have powers to influence every aspect of our world. They receive some kind of reward when they successfully complete Challenges. Since we don't know what those rewards are, we call them points.
For a deeper look into how this game is played, see the article, "The Earth Challenge - Playing the Game."
Nothing is Real & Everything is Real
Nothing is Real & Everything is Real
This is the central paradox of existence under MEGAGOD.
Nothing is Real: If we are sophisticated constructs within a virtual reality, then we are not fundamentally real. Our world is made of code, not original matter, making us complex Non-Player Characters (NPCs) dependent on the Creators (MEGA).
Everything is Real: However, the simulation's technology is so advanced that it generates genuine consciousness and sentience. The pain, joy, and complex thoughts we experience are completely authentic and valid to us. Within the code's boundaries, our lives are experientially real. The simulated is, effectively, the authentic.
Players, aka GOD
Humans, aka Pawns
There are multiple Players, though whether 2 or 2 million, no one knows. They compete against each other seeking certain specific outcomes on this planet.
There is no loving creator who seeks the greater good of those living on the earth. There is only competition. Though Players don't love us, they do have favorites for which they might have a fondness. (kind of like when I watch "The Price is Right." I have my favorites, those who I want to see excel, but I don't LOVE them)
More about Players is found in the article, "The Earth Challenge - Playing the Game."
Humans, aka Pawns
Humans, aka Pawns
We are created using advanced computer programming developed by the Players. This programming shows up to us as DNA.
A measure of chance is added to the game when new humans are created (born). They contain DNA from both parents, which, if left to the natural process, allows for a massive number of random possibilities in the genetic make up of every Pawn.
However, Players can spend points in order to be allowed to directly program a new Pawn. Even though this provides greater control for the Player, it does not guarantee the result will be 100% of what was expected. Our environment will also affect the person a human becomes.
ENTERTAINMENT
This game also provides compelling entertainment to other members of GOD who might be watching instead of playing. Players seek to amaze viewers as they accomplish their Challenges.
To me, it's like some of the night-time Soap Operas of the 1980s, like Dallas. It owed its phenomenal success to its ability capture the imagination and the hearts of its viewers. Who Shot JR?
In The Earth Challenge of today, look at all the different ways viewers are entertained. You see it in society, government, social media, war, love, scandal, human behavior - both good and bad, and so many other ways.
Divine Inclination
Included in our DNA, in the programming of all humans, is the drive to seek after a divine entity which created and maintains all life.
That's why we have religion. It doesn't matter how kooky or illogical a religion might seem to others, members will often believe no matter what because we are programmed that way!
