I wonder how many "almost" Earths there are in the universe, as god kept trying to figure out how to do that and failing over and over because dammit, the angle was off by this much!

I must say you've been consistent.
But I suppose if you start at the bottom that's not really very good.

Never mind - misread the post.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

Bollocks to that. My question still stands. What the hell do you think this shit proves?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

The kind of life we see on earth. If any of those factors were different, the life would be too.

They are vital to the particular life forms that evolved in that environment, which should come as no surprise at all. You pretend to grow tired of the puddle/hole metaphor, yet you continue to display exactly the ignorance that it describes. It's not that the universe or the planet were properly prepared for the life that would come to live on it. Life developed in accordance with the environment it found itself in.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
-Stephen Jay Gould
