Maybe we are just an expert version of Sims, and maybe the people that created this universe, or "game" are starting to get bored and about to pull the plug. there is actuly some good theories backing this idea, like the idea on how the universe is fine tuned, for example, if the sun was a little bit bigger we may burned up, or just the fact we were lucky enough to be placed on a planet with a good eniroment. i think it actuly may be possible

There's a great article by a physicist/philosopher who postulates that if it were possible to have enough technology to create an entire universe, then it is quite probably that we are a made up universe. Think about it - if every kid on some planet was playing "The Universe" game, then there would be a lot of universes out there - a LOT.
Now here's the catch: if this universe is just a simulation, then it would take massive amounts of computing power to make it work. So programmers would probably cut some corners here and there to save processing speed (like reflections in the water on video games - they're not really rendered as true physics, they just look good enough).
So then, if programmers were cutting corners, we should be able to see some discontinuities in nature, right? Well, it turns out this guy has found some! I'll try to find the article, but it's very very technical.

Well, no, I think the idea is that we would be little AI units going around doing things. Of course, you should do really interesting things if you don't want to be deleted!

I always wondered that, but I always accept that God made us and created heaven.

why would anybody think we are in a video game. If we were actually in one, then the player must have a really sick mind

well darkpitt, how does he (it,they, i dont know)
have a sick mind, for one thing they would be unbelivably farther advanced than us, and able to comprehend all the data we have in our universe,
also like i said, there has been some ideas supporting the idea

well maybe they just put it in our brains to be evil, not neccesarily that they clicked a button and spawned hundreds of nukes or anything, but like moegreche said, maybe we are just ai units and some other things are players
