A Quote from The Talos Principle 2
Cornelius
Straton wrote that the most common error we commit is to think that ideas determine reality, when in fact the opposite is true. Ideas follow from material conditions; belief systems are formed to explain and justify the way we live. We did not have kings because we believed in the mandate of heaven; we believed in the mandate of heaven because we lived in monarchies.

User tried to make changes to their own device settings which could result in an infinite regress and/or omnipotence. There is only room for one god around here.
Ther is no tool that is not also a weapon; and no human that would wield it as one.
God appears, and God is light,
to those poor souls who well in night,
but does a human form display,
to those who dwell in realms of day.
There's no human building that can survive without maintenance. Roots are stronger than concrete.
The beauty of the universe and the beauty of what we can accomplish within it are two related but separate things, and the separation matters.
