‘Variability’ % proves God is the SPECIAL CAUSE, skeptics, why are you ignoring?

“Yep it is the only mathematical probability.”

Assuming that creationism is a mathematical likelihood, how then do you jump to the assumption that the bible is the accurate truth and not, say, any of the other scores of creation accounts from around the world? Sorry, but the desperation involved in the attempt to validate religious texts as inalienable truth is just becoming more and more droll.

Straw man.

Address the point. How does the bible get validated before any other creation story?

Computer crashes

Power surges
High healthcare demand from elderly people
Abnormal traffic (click-fraud) on web ads[4]
Extremely long lab testing turnover time due to switching to a new computer system
Operator absent

Somehow I'm not seeing "the bible is true because only one known planet yet has detectable life forms". Your argument seems to be more a case of special pleading than anything else.

you are really getting some where, you have copied special cause well, that means your are looking around....


step one....OT is glad for you....

the pleading point is a tad desperate tho....

Actually, your entire argument is desperate. And entirely fallacious. You've made some "if-then" jumps that are wholly unsupported

What other creation story. If you just pick up a Bible and thumb thru it.
You can see the book it self has no match. Unless one looks with a closed mind. God has even made accomadations for that. True Magic. Unseen in the lab.

I want you to answer the question. I don't want some website to do your thinking and talking for you. Explain how the bible's creation account is validated by special cause argument rather than any other creation account.

I gave a link with scores of other creation stories. You are aware that other cultures have their own also, not just the Jews, right?

Why the BUT?

OT curious

oh yes. they may as well be non existent in comparison to the Bible is the point.

This Universe is part of an "Infinity" machine, there are many Universes along side each other ( Multiverse ), but there are copies of this Universe overlayed on top of each other that are effectively out of phase with each other. They represent consequences of very small change in each that play out the infinite number of possibility...imagine absolutely everything and every combination of anything.

What is this infinity machine you ask ? Our chance to experience a unique perspective of ourselves played out in an environment suited for us to learn the best lesson in our "Soul Development".

How do I know this ? its obvious!

Only ONE….

That contained intelligent life…

This planet is even the focal point of all stars…

If fact, this planet was visited by the creator.

The END!

Did you write this? It's remarkable.
The part about this planet being the focal point of all stars
was a little confusing. I had to read it twice. But then BAMM!!
It picks up and closes with such grace. Thanks for posting.

BUT prove OT wrong..........................

I am just going to ignore most of you're OP, It is just weird and does not make a ton of sense.

Your argument here is. We have not found intelligent life outside Earth, therefore "God did it" ? Humans are "special in some way ?

“You see if RANDOMNESS created intelligent life here, it should create it 94% of the time EVERYWHERE.”

First off no "RANDOMNESS" did not "create" anything. I don't think I am going to bother trying to explain this again. Just take my word for it .. or read a biology book.

Where and/or who said "it should create it 94% of the time EVERYWHERE." ?
No .. no it should not. You got to explain to my where this number came from.

I get the impression you seem to have no comprehension on just how big the universe is. This argument of yours is not valid, humans have not even started to explore space. The argument will most likely take centuries to be valid because we are not even close to properly searching for ET life out side our solar system, let alone distant galaxies.

To try to put this in prospective ..
We estimate there is hundreds of billions galaxies in the universe.
In our galaxy alone (Milky way) there is 200-400 billion stars.

70 sextillion+ stars in the observable universe alone .. That is 70 with 22 zeros.

Still think we have searched enough to say humans are special ?

Oh yeah some of these galaxies are 10 Billion+ light years aways
