What I dismiss is trying to talk to a troll who makes arguments for god that if you wear a sock on a different leg constitutes a different universe.

I'm not trolling, dipshit. And it's a fair point to make: if anything could have been different in the universe, the universe (being the superset) could have been different, therefore the universe is contingent. You don't have to agree with this point, if you're a necessitarian or modal realist or whatever, but this is the common-sense view (whether you like it or not).
