Damn, was really hoping there was some deeper stuff I was missing. So you're a subscriber to Egg Theory then?

It's called that from that little story about god talking to a recently deceased dude with the end result being that this universe is an egg?

Awesome. I guess I'm an egg theory subscriber.

It’s not called the Egg Theory. Its called Advaita Vedanta and it’s the oldest religion/metaphysics we have written records for.

And it can indeed get pretty deep. You should read Shankara‘s commentaries on the Vedas.
