I'd think it'd be more than that. For me, I'd want to escape because the higher world is in some way "more real". At the very least, I would assume (perhaps incorrectly!) that the higher world would be at a greater level of technological sophistication than ours in every way, and I would be intensely curious about living in it.

But at the same time, I don't think that, if we were to discover that our universe is a simulation, life in the simulation is pointless. Life's meaning is no more and no less what we individually give it.

Why would we assume that? It seems to me that some human-made fictional worlds, and also some human-made abstractions such as computers, are in many ways "purer" and "deeper" than the Universe that contains them. Therefore, the exact opposite seems just as plausible.

Banished from the Garden of Eden, it falls upon humankind's shoulders to create Heaven on Earth by crafting their own Garden.

Or we would escape simply out of curiosity and the desire to explore. These are clearly innate within many of us and some of us were rewarded in the past for exploring.

Where did you learn about spirituality?
