The 'counterfeit artificial god' (deeply imbalanced consciousness symbolised as 'Satan' and the 'Devil') is what created the simulation/Matrix that has entrapped humans in a fake reality. The simulation is based on electricity, electromagnetism, and frequency encoded with information which is decoded by the body/brain into the holographic world that we experience as 'physical' as a computer decodes Wi-Fi.
The 'counterfeit artificial god' is the force worshipped by religion in all its forms. See The Road Map.
