Jean Baudrillard
But what if God himself can be simulated, that is to say, reduced to the signs which attest to his existence? Then the whole system becomes weightless; it is no longer anything but a gigantic sumulacrum: not unreal, but a simulacrum, never again exchanging for what is real, but exchanging in itself, in an uninterrupted circuit without reference or circumference. - from You Too Can Be Awlaki! - Jarret M. Brachman and Alix N. Levine - The Fletcher Forum of World Affairs - Tufts University - Anwar al-Awlaki
