Default Re: A Prerequisite To Discussing God

Well I would interject that we know humans tend to give pattern to randomness because our minds can hardly handle the idea of utter randomness in the first place. Where do I get this outlandish idea? Look at the psychology of poker for a couple minutes and you'll see it... people deciding they "deserved" the cards to come out a certain way, or anything they describe as "lucky" all point to this. Therefore I would say that it is very possible this happened my "chance" as you say.

To use an example I heard very very often growing up in a strictly Christian (very evangelical Catholic) home: Our lungs are only equipped to accept the EXACT combination of gases in the air, if they were off by just a small amount, we would all suffocate. Doesn't that prove the existence of a omnipotent creator? No, it doesn't, if you believe in the scientific process of evolution. If our air was purely oxygen, then we would have simply developed lungs equipped to handle pure oxygen.

I know this is off topic, sorry all, but in response to eOXevious, it is appropriate.

Eric
