Status Updates From Simulationen von Gott. Spie...

“‘I am God’ becomes a humanistic solipsism: humanity stewing in its own juices, unable to see beyond nuclear weapons, chemical and biological warfare, industrial waste, pollution of the seas and the atmosphere, the killing of the planet.

Man’s inhumanity to man…[a] lack of respect for the human potential as opposed to the human past.” (54)

Schuster draws the line between simulation of truth and belief systems. He argues that humans are operating on a foundation of built-in programming, under the control of new programs we have acquired through evolution. While he is careful to remind you to watch your disbeliefs, as they are merely another form of belief, you are challenged to blindly follow Schuster down his rabbit hole of reality and the self.
