No, but you have my permission to actually address the fact that you only look at things from your backward view of "wow, that's unlikely, so it couldn't have happened".
When people win the lottery, snowtracks, does it only happen due to Intelligent Design? Because, it's super unlikely that anyone would win it, yet it happens all the time. Do you know why it happens? Iterative probability.
One guy isn't likely to win the lottery, but you're likely to have one winner when you get millions of participants. You understand this much of statistics, correct?
One planet isn't likely to have the right conditions for life, but there are a lot of planets in the universe, snowtracks. This is the exact same principle as how a few individuals can win the lottery despite it being unlikely for any one person. All your argument of "statistics, therefore God" is showing is that you don't understand statistics.
Stop talking about it. You're making yourself look fucking stupid.
