True, but my contention is that Occam's Razor points towards only one entity being strictly necessary for the system, while the rest of the cast members, so to speak, can be simulated when needed. The postulation, for me, serves as a probable alternative to the Judeo-Christian model. And instead of wondering whether or not there is a divine Creator, I wonder if, like Bill Hicks said, this is all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. And I think that is more likely.
