Because that wouldn't be very clever.
As far as I can see the survey doesn't prove that and doesn't even make the attempt. It skips the step altogether making the argument fundamentally flawed.
I agree with the Drake. ("Gotta love the Drake" .. anyone get the reference?)
I was unable to vote. Too perplexed by the idea of a 'necessary being' to have an opinion about what on the face of it is nonsense.
