Mauri .tanga You asked, "What do you mean what is real to me?" It is a simple question, isn't it. You demanded answers that God is REAL so you must know WTF you mean by REAL.
You, said, "The logical proof of computer simulation theory is life itself," Wrong, life is an evidence, not a proof.
You said, "do you have proof that cause and effect doesn't not aply to god?" No. I do not. God is metaphysical. What is metaphysical is unknowable to humans. We can't know, we can only believe or not believe based on logic applied against our observation of the EFFECTS of God, not of the entity God.
You asked, "Oh and can you actually disprove evolution? " Yes I can. But you have the burden of proof because you asserted evolution, I didn't. I am not just saying evolution is a fairy tale, I explained why it is a fairy tale : it is neither a fact nor a single theory but a collection of theories applied towards a variety of causal questions, in other words, a story, a godless fairy tale.

***** What did I tell you ? An incoherent mind cannot distinguish logic, so logical fallacies are not recognisable to such minds.
X explains Y, Y explains Z, therefore Z explain X is not debunking circular reasoning. It is confirming it, bonehead.
If you can figure out the logic, just get on with the issue. Where did you see mutations and genetics is evolution ? Per Wiki,
"In biology, a mutation is a permanent change of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism, virus, or extrachromosomal DNA or other genetic elements."
"Genetics is the study of genes, heredity, and genetic variation in living organisms. It is generally considered a field of biology, but it intersects frequently with many of the life sciences and is strongly linked with the study of information systems."
Where is evolution in these definitions, bonehead ?

***** Our physical universe has a beginning, that's the big bang hypothesis. There is a first cause, that's the law of cause and effect. We call the first cause God, that's a fact but you can call the first cause by any other name you like, no one can stop you. We choose to believe in God the same way we choose to believe in gravity, life, and time, by applying our logic towards our observation of the EFFECTS of these entities and not of these entities themselves because these entities are metaphysical and what is metaphysical is unknowable to humans, only believable.
Evolution is neither a fact nor a single theory. Since there is not a single theory to be tested, evolution cannot be science. I did not invent this. I'll quote you the evolutionary biologist who pointed this out. Per Wiki, "Evolutionary biologist Kirk J. Fitzhugh[39] wrote, "'Evolution' cannot be both a theory and a fact. Theories are concepts stating cause–effect relations...One might argue that it is conceivable to speak of 'evolution' as a fact by way of it being the subject of reference in explanatory hypotheses...In the strictest sense then, 'evolution' cannot be regarded as a fact even in the context of hypotheses since the causal points of reference continue to be organisms, and no amount of confirming instances for those hypotheses will transform them into facts...While evolution is not a fact, it is also not a single theory, but a set of theories applied to a variety of causal questions...An emphasis on associating 'evolution' with 'fact' presents the misguided connotation that science seeks certainty."

***** You said, " It’s funny, to see you object to “evolution” and “natural selection” solely on the basis of semantics, I’ve never seen that before." The reason is giants are not made everyday. :) I don't reject "natural". Natural means God made, period.
I reject "selection", for God did not design intelligence into the inanimate God made (natural) environment that enables it to act, choose, or select. It is always living organisms that mutates because each and every living organism is designed with intelligence to enable them to survive, reproduce, mutate, and die by acting, choosing, selecting, and otherwise manipulating its inanimate natural (God given) environment. Plants and animals living in space is a good example of that.
Accidents do not exit in real life. You said, " “Accident” simply means something one did not expect", and " “random” simply means something we cannot predict. The creator is obviously not that someone. Everything that exist is caused to exist. This is the law.
No speciation has ever been observed whether created by God or popped out of another species by some bullshit selection process. Varieties with the same specie is not speciation. One specie cannot mate with another specie or mutate to become another specie. Speciation is a fantasy.
You can call God by any other name you like. But to call God evolution is to say evolution accounts for the solar system as well as life on earth. Well, go ahead, no one can stop you.
I never said ID is scientifically testable. It is not because the concept of God is involved and God is a non falsifiable fact. ID is testable and we test our ID all the time. Look in the mirror and use the logic designed in you to figure out what you see there. That's ID.
Clones are good examples of variety within the same specie. Cloned sheep are still sheep. Clones are not identical. Clones have souls.
You said, "The scientific method can be used to detect anything which has any influence what so ever over anything in the universe." No. Scientific method cannot tell us what is gravity, life, or time, yet we all know these metaphysical entities exist.

MarcoManiac I said, "No doubt atoms are real, so are apples, they are real illusions." I never said atoms are not real. My point is, what we see is just illusions of the metaphysical reality. We can't see gravity, life, time, or God because they are metaphysical, not physical. The physical effects of these metaphysical entities are just effects like an illusion. Falling objects are the effects of gravity but is not gravity. Flying birds are the effect of life but is not life. Ticking clocks are the effects of time but is not time. Our physical universe and life on earth are the effects of God but is not God. We don't know what is gravity, life, time, or God. We can only choose to believe or not believe in these metaphysical entities based on our logic applied towards our observation of the effects of these metaphysical entities.

***** Not evolved, designed. And you are on the right track : as scientifically illustrated, our entire existence is nothing more than a complex physical process of our mind, and that's the way we were designed by the metaphysical intelligent designer we called God.
Per Webster, "Metaphysics,
: of, relating to, or based on metaphysics
: of or relating to things that are thought to exist but that cannot be seen."
We cannot know metaphysical entities. We can only choose to believe or not to believe in metaphysical entities like God, gravity, and time based on our logic applied towards our observations of the effects of these metaphysical entities and not of the entities themselves. The birds and the galaxies are the observations or evidence that allowed us to believe in God, the falling object in gravity, the ticking of the clock in time.
May the truth set you free.

***** Dream on. I won't be teaming up with you. Evolution does not exist in real life, period. In real life, it has always been designs. Mutation, genetics, gene pools, intelligent adaptation of living organisms, varieties in species are all parts of the original intelligent design, no intervention has ever been observed and no intervention is necessary. No one knows what gravity is but gravity is definitely not physical. Per Wiki, "Gravity (or gravitation) is a natural phenomenon by which all things attract one another including stars, planets, galaxies and even light and sub-atomic particles.", "Newton's law of universal gravitation states that any two bodies in the universe attract each other with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them." a force is a metaphysical entity. Gravitational force does not even exist or is a fictitious force under Einstein's theories of relativity.
Physics is not physical either. In fact all scientific theories are in essence metaphysical. Don't believe me ? Look it up.
You don't need me to show you evidence of design. Just look in the mirror. You'll find it.
