CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
Can we/you number the amount of quantum particles in the universe...?

Quite - it has similar logical and philosophical flaws to the Simulation Hypothesis.
David Chalmers, the philosopher who named the 'Hard Problem' of consciousness, is currently working on a book, working title, 'Reality 2.0', which will be a detailed philosophical examination of Matrix-style artificial and virtual realities; he thinks, "... virtual reality, simulated reality is a genuine kind of reality. It’s not a fake or a second-class reality." I'm inclined to agree, from the insider's perspective - after all, we already live in a virtual reality of sorts - one that our brains construct from the neural spike trains coming from our senses. The world we think we see is a prediction, constantly corrected by sensory information.

Sure it has similarities to Nick Bostrom’s theories but it’s not exactly the same.
