We babble about science and odds because these are the most informative tools for determining if current models are sufficient to explain the formation of life. I could go through a calculation of the odds of a functionally significant protein forming by chance if you want. You can disagree with the philosophy behind it, but disagreeing with the math is not a good idea. Math is the only way to truly prove anything.
It's not outrageous, it's just stupid. In lights of what we learned about the universe, the world and ourselves over the last few centuries.
I think, I already said it, but your obviously the posterboy caveman not understanding the sun and the moon and calling them gods. Worse than that, since now we have the tools to explain a lot of things in nature. Not all of them, but that doesn't mean we have to fill the gaps with god. It's just the same old answer. We don't know - as of yet. But the pile of evidence against your particular scripted god versus him being a reality, is like the difference between the Mount Everest and an Ant heap.
