^. Here's the crux.
Either scenario (goddidit vs sim) both devolve into infinite regression.
If we are real and godditit, then who made god?
If we aren't real, then where did our sim hosts come from?
eg: God "poofed" the sim hosts into existence who consequently went on to simulate us, is just about as far from Occam's as conceivably possible. <least likely.
You gotta admit, it's a breath of fresh air to dispense with all the baggage and assume we are real. Eg: we evolved from primates via evolution. <most likely scenario.
Phew! Now I need a banana...

No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
