(March 9, 2014 at 12:56 pm)Heywood Wrote: In my mind, when an atheist(or anyone else for that matter) claims that life occupies no significant or special place I believe them to be wrong. I will readily admit though, that the special place we do hold could be an artifact of the laws of physics and not necessarily by the design of an intellect.

My point was, though, is you're not explaining how this represents a "significant or special place."

Why should I see this as anything more than a mathematical curiosity?
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
