"and therefore this virtual space-time appears to those of you who live within it as what you call 'space-time'. A simulation can emulate the physical world as you see it, but the question is why would anyone need to simulate an entire Universe. There must be a reason for them to keep us inside this simulated world, and not knowing this reason makes us all metaphysical illiterates. During the CAFB exchange, the beings said to us that our existence in this simulated reality is required as a challenge for us to discover how to escape from it; once we learn how to escape - they said - we will be ready to join them. It is this paternalistic view what makes them irritating beings, like all prophets are, you know."

"It is a tough decision, but it is a decision we've taken and wish to stick to it. Humans are prone to religious beliefs; most people going through a near-death experience talk about angels, peace, love, and all that shit. If we wish to fight against those beings we need to take an emotionally-detached approach, and that's why we think the best way to fight them is using probes, artificial intelligence, drones, and robots. That's the way we see it. Humans are love-prone, and love is the last thing you need in a war like this."
