I'm not sure about that. If I believe our reality is a computer simulation, would theists really be happy calling Kevin at Universes4U a god? I'd say this is a scientifically consistent (although unecessary) hypothesis.
Here's the problem. Since Gods are made up beings that no one even knows what the fuck they are (including theists) no one has to think too hard about them. Is Derek a god? If God just means "creates universes" then yes he is, but that's just replacing one question with another pointless label.
Fuck Derek. Turn your damn practice realities off when you've finished with them. You hear me? People down here think you're some sort of omnipotent being. Ironically, you probably are with regard to this reality. Not so much in your own. People are eating wafers and thinking they turn into bits of your dead son. Sort it out.
