Atheism destroyed with a question
RE: Atheism destroyed with a question
I think he needs to take a ride on the outside of a rocket to the moon wearing nothing but bermuda shorts and a t-shirt. Just to test that concept you know.
Everything I needed to know about life I learned on Dagobah.

You'd have better luck trying to convince people that a small percentage of surface area on the earth is somewhat tuned to allow for life. Even that is a stretch as mortal danger lies in wait around every corner in many walks of life.

Yes, if it were specifically designed for life, I'd expect it to be more of a land of milk and honey, and less of a death trap. Still, it could be much worse. It seems to be just on the edge of what is needed for intelligent life. This fact which is usually called fine tuning, is really evidence against design when you think about it, because it is precisely what to expect from athropic selection...

We can leave science to demonstrate the complexity and sheer perfect order and magnificence of a purposefully created universe. More than enough of a demonstration for anyone even former atheists.

Yes but you would reject it as evidence and put it down to coincidence or "just the way the universe happened to be" by chance.

Flew suffered from dementia.

What's your excuse?

Oviparity (egg-laying) evolved around 220 MYA.

Thus, the egg came first, and by a wide margin.

Next stupid question, please.

How does the egg yolk get inside of the egg shell?

The chicken egg.

It didn't care about the satisfaction of the chicken . . .
