Explain why we have food for 7.8 million different species of conscious life on this planet. Explain why we have a sex drive and a will to live. Why would nothingness even care if we had genitals, a sex drive, consciousness, emotions or a will to live? Nothingness cannot care. Explain why on top of all that and our amazing abilities to see and smell and hear and feel, and to think, why we also have a planet with electricity, fire, and a vast amount of useful materials and resources? There is too much luck and chance you have to believe as an atheist --to the point that it goes beyond what any rational thinking person would believe.

As any student of logic and reason, such as yourself, should know, that is an argument from ignorance and the conclusion doesn't therefore follow. Far from impugning my character and my attitude toward logic, it rather impugns your own.
Ev:I know you wish that were true, but ours is the only logical explanation and deep down, I know you know that too.
Something can be entirely consistent with the facts and still be wrong. That you think logical consistency is a sufficient safeguard of truth only further impugns your much vaunted abilities. And as a matter of fact, no, yours isn't the only logical explanation of the various questions proposed.

There is one creator God that we all believe in, but because we are all different, people relate to God in the way that makes the most sense to them personally. I did not say I was kicking ass and taking names. I just said you were making false claims about me being proven wrong. A lot of the discussions have come down to just different opinions and beliefs that cannot accurately be judged as right or wrong.

If you were delusional regarding your general beliefs, your experiences, your general competence, your success in this thread here, or any of a number of things you've implied or asserted, how would you know?
Oh my God, maybe I am just your delusion. Maybe I don't even really exist. Or maybe this whole universe is just God's delusion and we just all think we are here.... LOL
Still not an answer to the question. And I will point out that the answer, whatever yours is, likely has serious consequences with respect to other things you have voiced in this thread.
That you choose to deflect rather than answer the question leads me to suspect you may not even have an answer ready at hand.
