    What I find so amusing is that we have Olga here, trashing a 13 year
    old kid for being allegedly as naive as, well, a 13 year old, for
    thinking there is a God while being allegedly so high an IQ as to be
    untestable. In the very next message, we have part of a discussion
    about the writings of Nick Bostrom, who theorizes that we live in a
    simulation, which obviously implies that the simulation is running on a
    simulator, which implies that there is some entity running that
    simulator, i.e. God.

    Olga, why is it you have no problem bullying a naive 13 year old kid
    but can't bother to get even nastier with a 30 year old man for having
    the very same naive thoughts, though expressed a bit more eruditely?
    Especially since this 30 year old is supposed to be one of us, and
    according to transhuman orthodoxy, is supposed to be an atheist.
