Scientific evidence of God by an atheist (Where mankind is one likely type of God)

You do have beliefs. You believe you're right, for starters. But you're wrong.

Are you mentally ill?

One needs not BELIEF in the OBSERVATION of PROBABILITIES.

Yes I probably am mentally ill but I'm less of an idiot than you are.

That's all he's saying. That and some crap about some other crap, I don't know I don't care.

Already explained to him that running the Matrix only makes you 'god' in a figurative sense, and only in relative comparison. Whole thing seemed to pass him by without notice so I lost interest.

Either a troll or a moron. Sickly discolouration in the font lends to the former.

Your commentary is nonsense.
Simplification:

Tradition (theistic deity definition) contains (on the horizon of scientifically observable probabilities/statisticsnon-evidentproperties (ie: omniscience, omnipotence)

In contrast, the definition (as observed in the original post)  reduces traditional deity-bound properties, abound scientifically observable probabilities/statistics, such that a particular property is evident - thusly the ability to forge non-trivial intelligence, and thereafter, said intelligence shall likely exceed the net intelligence of the creator's(s') species...whilst separately theist-theorized properties [omniscienceomnipotence etc] likely shan't obtain, particularly on the horizon of aforesaid observable probabilities/statistics.)

Thusly, God is properly statistically definable, as observed amidst the original post.  (Only the theistic mind adheres to the concept of omniscient, omnipotent deities)

You're overlooking a glaring contradiction.

Just because you're shitting over the forum colorfully doesn't mean you're not shitting over the forum.

Seems more like shrooms to me.

In fact his shrooms are so powerful it's exploding out of his mind and we're seeing it ourselves Shock

He's been reading what Elon Musk said about computer simulation, if you remember we thrashed this out a while back.

The universe simulation hypothesis (particularly relating to our universe) is the least relevant scenario mentioned. (As seen in solely ONE god-tier, #3)

Primarily, A God bound entity likely has the ability to create non-trivial intelligence  (The most complex constructs in the known universe - human level, and likely beyond)

Thereafter, on Moore's Law etc, we are likely on the horizon of creating such non-trivial intelligence.  

(NOTE: Brain based models already exceed/equal humans on non trivial cognitive tasks, ranging from language translation to disease diagnosis)

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
