A) There is no way to determine the probability of "natural filtering" - by which I assume you mean the particular method by which life originated - because we don't happen to know how it did originate. Even if you did subscribe to a particular hypothesis - how do you calculate the probability of that occurring?
B) Borel would be revolving in his grave if he knew how his law was being misused by creationists. Its a general thumb rule - not an iron clad law of nature - which can be seen to be inapplicable even in everyday life.

You just use semantics to beat around the bush hoping your opponent won't notice how far off topic they are... I have to admit it's pretty smart until it comes down to the reality that you just don't have an answer
Are you fucking kidding me? I'm not online 24/7 you know - I have a life.
