I Am Amazed At the Universe

We are, by astronomical standards, a pampered, cossetted, cherished group of creatures; our Darwinian claim to have done it all ourselves is as ridiculous and as charming as a baby’s brave efforts to stand on its own feet and refuse his mother’s hand. If the universe had not been made with the most exacting precision we could never have come into existence. It is my view that these circumstances indicate the universe was created for man to live in.‘

The universe is a chaotic mass of crashing imprecision. Whole galaxies collide with each other, magnetars sweep whole regions of space clean of planetary atmospheres and random black holes destroy matter and energy at a colossal rate. The "design" logic of the universe is messy by the standard of a brain damaged 2year-old on meth.

Why do you like spouting your ignorance? The defiance of science? You are totally without knowledge having gained only useless information of a useless Internet site@redredred

@Speedyman Not the FAMOUS Tony Gaskins Jr.!?!?!? Really? Is he doing your thinking now since your stroke?

Doesn’t matter who said it. It applies to you@redredred

@Speedyman But way more so to you who read one fucking worthless shitty book written by people so stupid they spent forty years making a nineteen day walk through the desert. Nothing would change your reptilian brain.
Speedyman · 70-79, M
On the subject of reptilian brains just read your post. Worthy of a retail Ian brain if ever I saw one. Sad old guy you! 🙁@redredred

@Speedyman Okay shithead, lets do a thought experiment about who can learn and who cannot.

If I saw your imaginary godlette appear before me and do something obviously miraculous, I would believe. Thats the evidence I would accept.

What evidence would you accept to abandon your belief?

If you cannot answer this or claim no evidence would dissuade you, thats proof you cannot learn.
Speedyman · 70-79, M
If you would say something intelligible and intelligent it might help the argument but as you say nothing comprehensible to any intelligent person I don’t see why I should answer you. You are just the living example of the fool who says in his heart there is no God@redredred

@Speedyman So, as predicted, you cannot or will not answer my question proving you are incapable of learning anything. Thanks for playing our game.
Speedyman · 70-79, M
As predicted you cannot even ask a sensible question but it’s not surprising. But never mind you give everyone a good laugh@redredred

@Speedyman I asked a sensible question, your simply afraid to admit you cant answer it.

@redredred The universe a well planned well executed marvel of engineering. Seriously your lack of insight is showing and it doesn't look good for you.

The universe is a chaotic mass of careening accidental collisions in no way resembling an intelligent design. Whole galaxies are colliding with each other and black holes eat up millions of tons of matter each second. @hippyjoe1955

@redredred And your vision of chaos indicates what to you? I watched my grandsons playing with tops that smashed into each other. It was a game for them they derived great fun as the tops smashed and crashed and broke into pieces. Of course they simply snapped the tops back together and repeated the game. Was the tops smashing and crashing and breaking into pieces an indication of chaotic destruction?
