Simulating Good and Evil shows that the moral panic surrounding violent videogames is deeply misguided, and often politically motivated, but that games are nevertheless morally important. Videogames should be seen as spaces in which players may experiment with moral reasoning strategies without inflicting real harm.

Simulating Good and Evil shows that the moral panic surrounding violent videogames is deeply misguided, and often politically motivated, but that games are nevertheless morally important. Simulated actions are morally defensible because they take place outside the real world and do not inflict real harms. Decades of research purporting to show that videogames are immoral has failed to produce convincing evidence of this. However, games are morally important because they simulate decisions that would have moral weight if they were set in the real world. Videogames should be seen as spaces in which players may experiment with moral reasoning strategies without taking any actions that would themselves be subject to moral evaluation. Some videogame content may be upsetting or offensive, but mere offense does not necessarily indicate a moral problem. Upsetting content is best understood by applying existing theories for evaluating political ideologies and offensive speech.

Much of the contemporary world has become cynical about the existence of God. This lack of belief in God has resulted in an abandonment of spiritual accountability, and a corresponding rise in dissemination of misinformation, tolerance of evil, and abandonment of hope for humanity. The cynicism stems in large part from an unearned notion that physics and evolution are inconsistent with Scripture. We Live in a Simulation Created by God attempts to dismantle this notion that science is inconsistent with Judeo-Christian-Islamic Scripture and monotheistic tenets of Hinduism and Buddhism like karma and reincarnation. More particularly, we’ll reference things like the inability of any particle in the Universe to move faster than the speed of light, the fact that dark matter and dark energy don’t actually exist, and the illusory quality of quantum particles, as well as a little bit of biochemistry and some very basic math, to demonstrate that the data set comprised by the Universe is less consistent with the accidental creation of the self-reflective living human machine by unguided natural selection alone than it is with the notion of humanity comprising consciousness perceiving via avatars within a learning simulation Programmed by Supreme Intellect.

On the Simulation (i.e. Faking) of Mental Disorders (original German: Über Simulation von Geistesstörung) is an early 1903 essay by Jung on the challenges of diagnosing mental conditions when the patient is confused themselves. Jung addresses the intentional feigning or simulation of mental disorders. He examines the challenges of differentiating between genuine mental illness and simulation, particularly in legal and clinical settings. Jung notes that while many simulators are not mentally normal, they often have traits of degeneracy or hysteria. These traits can complicate the diagnosis, as hysterical individuals may exhibit behaviors that mimic genuine mental disorders. The document highlights the challenges faced by psychiatrists in differentiating between real and feigned symptoms, stressing the lack of an infallible method to unmask simulators. This edition contains a new 2023 translation from the original German manuscript with an Afterword by the Translator, a philosophic index of Jung's terminology and a timeline of his life and works.
