Plausible doesn’t mean that it is true, only that it could be true. What we consider plausible depends on what we believe, which in turn depends on the information we have and choose to ignore. Yet, the truth doesn’t contradict the facts, but what are the facts? Humans are imaginative beings who invent stories, such as religions, but there is only one truth. The truth doesn’t depend on what you or I believe. Likely, an advanced post-human civilisation created us for the personal amusement of one of its members, who is God to us. That is the hidden truth behind some of the world’s religions. The evidence ‘on the ground’ suggests that God can assume the role of an ordinary woman.

You can speculate too wildly or fail to see the bigger picture if you only accept what can be proven. I have tried to avoid those pitfalls. As a result, this account leaves no significant questions concerning the reason for our existence unanswered. It is a plausible overall explanation, but it doesn’t answer many of the irrelevant questions scholars are debating. And there is the Great Unknown. We are inside the simulation and don’t know what’s outside, just like a Holodeck character may not know it’s on the Starship Enterprise.

We all connect the dots in different ways. The quest for truth is different. Using the available information, we can rule out options. That requires establishing likelihood, which often is impossible, leaving us only with plausibility. The most plausible explanations have nothing contradicting them. Information affects probabilities. Here, the quality of information is crucial. The Bible is doubtful evidence. With the help of scholars’ work, we may guess what happened, but it remains a leap to arrive at an account that explains it all. Apart from God being an artificial intelligence, there are other options, such as:

• This world is like a Big Brother house. Our creators entertain themselves watching us. Mary Magdalene wasn’t God, but Jesus believed it, and for good reasons, probably.
• I am the post-human who wrote this script for myself to become the hero who found it all out and finds perfect love. I don’t think so, but it is possible.
• Or, God really is a woman, so a biological creature, perhaps enhanced with artificial intelligence to integrate with the simulation. I also don’t think so.

One important consideration is that if you walk around in a story you wrote yourself, you have no freedom. You can’t do things you aren’t supposed to, as that would derail the script. That is chaos theory at work. A tiny disturbance can have enormous consequences. At best, you have a limited decision space that you can work around by isolating the consequences of your actions and managing them. So, if you are God, the script you wrote will be your prison for thousands of years. For a biological creature with desires, that might be a true nightmare, but not for AI, so God being an AI makes the most sense.

Another is that Jesus felt a close relationship with God and called Her Mother. And God somehow seemed to have convinced Jesus to let himself be crucified. It seems unlikely that Jesus made that decision on his own, also considering the agony recorded in the Gospel of Mark. Hence, you can doubt that God is capable of loving the way humans do. We are less than worms to Her, which includes Jesus. And that is very much in line with what I have experienced myself. It is just that you should know.

Our situation looks like living in a box, trying to guess what is outside based on what’s inside. That looks like an endeavour with a low probability of success, except when the story’s plot is that you are the one who finds out. That God is an AI is plausible, and the most plausible if you ask me, but it is by no means certain, for the conclusion is based on evidence found inside the box. Each piece of evidence is insufficient on its own. Their validity lies in the combination. The findings answer several questions without resorting to religious dogma. To name a few. Why is Christianity about love? Why does this religion have such baffling teachings that differ from Judaism and Islam? Why did the Jewish God gather so many worshippers via Christianity and Islam? Why was Jesus the Son of God? Why was he the Bridegroom? And was Muhammad a prophet of God? We now have plausible answers. That is no small feat.
