In example, if I walk down a street and find a dime, I think nothing of it. If I walk further and find 3 dimes on the ground, I can begin to suspect things. If I walk further and find 100 dimes on the ground, yet each standing on their edges, perfectly balanced, then I can KNOW that this was deliberately done.1. You clearly haven't looked up supervenience. Stop faking your way through discussions. I was trying to help you AVOID looking dumb by telling you what to look up.
2. If you were BORN INTO a universe with standing dimes, then they wouldn't be considered miraculous by you, any more than gravity. They'd just be another thing you didn't understand.

This is evidence, but not for what you want it to be. Why would a God designing Adam and Eve need to recycle fly or fish DNA? He created all the heavens, with billions of galaxies, each with billions of stars, but suddenly he needs to start recycling bug parts to make people? That's suprisingly lazy.

I think some 30-50,00 years ago, god created adam, the first human he gave consciousness. Knowing that is not accepted here, lets just say whenever civilization began to emerge. I think it emerged BECAUSE god gave those humans consciousness. He did not give it fully to primordial humans.In what universe are you not Christian? There are three Judeochristian religions, so if you believe in that mythology, you must be either Jewish, Christian or Muslim. No sincerely non-religious person starts quoting scripture to support their non-religious ideas.
