gravity constant chances of being as they are 10^120 ? a trillion, trillion, trillion ^1
10 with 120 zeroes to one Doesn't matter? it happened coz it did... multiverse theory, which no one has actually submitted a paper on? odds also 10 ^120 ? ![]() |

You try to contradict science using Science, of probability.
In its place you offer us creationism which does not have one single piece of evidence???????????????????????????? Belief in not proof! |

By:
What you have written Zorro makes no sense. The gravitational constant is just that, a measured value.
Why don't you go back and read John Polkinghorne again (or whoever is your current guru) and try and try and understand what he is claiming. You can then read my previous response again which is your answer from me. |

high probability happens !
what are the chances of us being conceived its the number of sperm/1 = 100,000,000/1 = 10 ^ 8 else we are somebody different add in your mam and dads chances and their parents and theirs and you soon reach probabilities that perhaps should not exist yet here we are and there are billions of us, each with our own probability trees |

i'm sorry. so sorry .... maths has destroyed your way.... i'm sorry, so sorry...
it's all gone away.... MATHS a real science. Not that philosophy, untestable BS. That is observational and has no practical applications. Tomorrow, i'll wake up, spring out of bed and shout - what breakthrough in evolutionary science will come today? ( not gonna happen) Because it doesn't produce a thing. unlike Physics, chemistry, biology and MATHS. (mr Pasteur is crying, father of microbiology, he says to stop it, Darwin doesn't get the credit for his work, he's told you before, Darwin is a ****) it's in his letters). Look children a bone, it a million years old? No, miss it's a bone, of indeterminate age. |

but maths gives us a threshold, the impossibilty threshold. it's not 10^8 which is the lottery win as well. it's 10^50 - that's extremely more than 10^8. imagine winning the main prize lottery every day for a few thousand years. see the difference. now - you got to beat 10^120 twice (gravity and multiverse) 10^260 for one protein forming then there are another few hundred variables to beat also ? insane much. |

"Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones we don't know we don't know. And if one looks throughout the history of our country and other free countries, it is the latter category that tend to be the difficult one"

i think it's fair to accept the concept that when a probability becomes so small it effectively becomes impossible.
but zorro's examples are silly. for what seems like the 15th time, i must remind him that the number he quotes for the spontaneous formation of a protein is a nonsense and I've explained why a number of times. it's very very sad that he keep repeating it. it's why i've tried to stop posting on these threads. likewise assigning some probability to the gravitational constant is also a nonsense. it's the equivalent to claiming that pi was created because the probability of it coming about by chance is infinite because it's a transcendental number. |

No, miss it's a bone, of indeterminate age. Wrong Zorro...the bone would be identified by carbon dating which works. We are gamblers on here...how many races or football matches work out to probability The first two results at Fontwell this afternoon did not appear probable to me but they happened. You are also using current probability levels Zorro, as we learn more these may change. One thing I do know that the description in Genesis in the Bible being true has a probability of zero! |

Often the more we discover, the less we know. But Science including Darwinism is trying hard. Religion is like an Ostrich, it sticks its head in the sand! |

By:
how is the number i quote nonsense - it Francis Crick the evolutionist's own number?
I didn't make it up - he did. He cut his own nads off. Carbon dating - how it works - First when submitting a sample to date you must supply a date you think it may be from? otherwise they will not accept it. Willard F. Libby Was the man who first developed the idea and procedure for Carbon dating. He measured the half-life of Carbon-14 to be about 5,568 years. However after about 50,000 years there is so little Carbon-14 left in the specimen that it is very hard, almost impossible, to calculate its age. (Van Der Merwe) Libby ran many tests on items where the age was known, or estimated by other means. His test results came rather close, to within plus or minus a few hundred years. (Poole) oops - i did it again. so children, please remember it's a bone. |

oh zorro, not again.
it's reaching the stage where you're starting to look like a troll or have become so blinkered that you brutally filter out everything you read that causes even the slightest whiff of cognitive dissonance. i've explained to you countless times that crick uses that number to explain that proteins did not just spontaneously assemble through chance from a pool of amino acids, rather that there must be a more feasible mechanism, and uses it to preface an argument for evolution. It's used as evidence by crick to support the very thing you use it for to attempt to disprove. That's how out of kilter you are. To assign a probability to it, is the same as assigning a probability to pixies living inside my computer's CPU and it's that they are doing all the processing. Let me explain this. DStyle: "My computer's CPU is made up over a billion transistors" Zorro: "No it's a little elephant doing the work". DStyle "the probability of there being little pixies doing the work in my computer's CPU is close to zero" Zorro: "Therefore the only remaining explanation is the little elephant" It's an utterly insane version of the prosecutor's fallacy. As for the limitations of carbon dating, there are a multitude of other dating techniques. |

Scientist puts the odds of God existing at 67 percent.
https://www.theguardian.com/education/2004/mar/08/highereducation.uk1 Non – God odds below… Gravity constant aka the universal constant has been calculated at 10 to the power of 120 . 10^120. 10 with 120 zeros to 1 Multiverse theory – no scientist has offered a paper to this theory, but physicists have calculated that the likelihood of a multiverse existing to be 10^120 too. Francis Crick – evolutionist, has himself calculated a random protein forming to be 10^260. Twenty different proteins needed to make a simple cell. Three obstacles that are insane. What are the odds…. A billion to one 10^8 A trillion is 10^12 10^120 is a trillion, trillion,trillion,trillion,trillion,trillion,trillion,trillion,trillion,trillion to one. The amount of atoms in the universe is between 10^78 and 10^82. |

There is also the stuff we stand on the Earth
There are layers of it earth, rocks, sand, etc. It has all been formed and laid down over time. Dig down and we go back into the past, fossils in each layer correspond to that time. Or are you going to write off geology as well Zorro? Scientist puts the odds of God existing at 67 percent. erm One scientist! There is always a website somewhere on the Internet to support whatever view we want Still don't let me change you Zorro ![]() |

I think Zorro is insecure and seeks confirmation of his beliefs. He's made a poor choice in seeking such confirmation on this forum and should look elsewhere.

By:
not insecure in MY beliefs just YOURS.
In a few years my beliefs will be held up and proven. You guys will be in trouble. I'm trying to pull you away from the pit. Christ is holding his hand out to you and you are slapping it away.. Time is on my side... oh yes it is. in response to ebulGery. Layeres of soil and other strata can be laid down very quickly. Mount st Helens exploded and covered the entire earth. Krakatoa did the same. many others. Trees have been found in between soil stratas - they are called 'polystrate fossils' please google. also there a plane that ditched in Greenland in 1942. They set out to find it and expected to dig a few feet down. Instead the plane was buried by 268 feet of ice 'the glacier girl' was only there for 50 years. 70 metres down. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glacier_Girl |

Thanks for your concern Zorro and I'm pleased to hear that you are not feeling insecure as I had thought.
There's no need to worry about me, honestly. Just you look forward to happy times to come with Jesus. God bless. Oh and please stop posting pseudoscientific nonsense on here, leave that with the creationist website builders will you? |

By:
Zorro Geologists know when strata is laid down.
Oh and please stop posting pseudoscientific nonsense on here, leave that with the creationist website builders will you? I agree Foinavon. You are not having any real debate, you just pick out little bits which suit you. You have every right to believe in God and creationism and I am sure you are a nice man . |

well the latest scientific theories say this, our existence. Behaves like a simulation. (i personally think this is BS) but if the physicists are right. it's a program being run somewhere on a super computer - it therefore means that time is an illusion. the program could complete in milliseconds and we would experience billions of years in the simulation.
science - such BS they think up. And someone always buys it. I'm sticking to my guns chaps - the messiah doesn't break his promises and there are a few to go. Famine, pestilence, meteors, etc. It's not nice stuff. But then it's for not nice people. Evil, all evil will be swept away. If you want to hang onto your baggage and manage it, like picking a scab. It's your choice. I would investigate further because eternity is a long time. I'm trying to scare you now, because rational discourse isn't working. I don't want you to join a club or pay dues to some cheesy tele evangelist. I just want you to read the bible and start a conversation with the real god. the one that wasn't created. That's eternal. Zeus was created, Thor, the fairies, the chocolate pot. But God is Spirit and never drifted into idol worship. the bible deals with real people in a fallen world, they live in brutal times and violence happens, remarkably it still does today. Britain just smited the Iraq people, the Afghan people. etc. The bible is a history of several generations of Jews. What other religion follows ordinary people like that. The people have barbaric superstitions and God rebukes them for idol worship. False gods. You complain there are thousands of other gods. God does the same. False gods. The bible says Adam lost his authority to Satan. and Satan is now the god of this world. He has a right to rule till the lease expires. God gave 6000 years on the lease. The Jews are saying it's up soon. I believe them. you can all quibble about numbers, years etc. to me it's irrelevant, time is God's creation. he walked on water he can bend time. I'm warning people, because I'm safe, but you are not. you need to investigate and question this world, because the father of lies rules it. he uses words like life emerged from mud - life has the appearance of being designed. (so i can't believe my own eyes? trust my perceptions?) investigate and be sure. because 100 years is not eternity. it's a scratch on a block of marble a mile deep. end of rant. |
