Default Re: Can the probability of God existence change?

"I doubt any one miracle would be enough for sklansky, save for a voice coming out of the sky. But certainly there must be things which he would entertain adjusting the odds."

Very frustrtaing. The probability of ANYTHING changes, (from the vantage point of the oddsmaker or collective oddsmakers) any time ANY relevant information is received. If there was no intelligent life anywhere else in the universe, it would significantly raise the probability of the existence of a personal god. If we built computers that were conscious, it would significntly decrease the chances. Smaller events have smaller effects.
