If there’s one simulation, there are many simulations. Any given “simulation God” can only interfere with their own simulation. Interfered-with simulations diverge, not-interfered-with simulations converge. Thus, at any given point, I should expect to be in the not-interfered-with simulation. “God”, if you can call it that, but not “Supernatural” because this prime mover cannot affect the world.
I probably used the wrong word; rather, they don’t diverge, they end up looking the same. If initial state is the same, and physics are the same, then calculation will end up the same likewise. In that sense, every interaction by simulation Gods with the sim is increases the bit count of the description of the world you find yourself in. (Unless the world of our simulation God is so much simpler that it’s easier to describe our world by looking at their world. But that seems implausible.)

Why would they converge?
