It is clearly science fiction at this point. I just wonder why they feel a need to call the multiverse theory science.
So, nothing to do with the bond energy that is the same in every sodium thiosulphate crystal?
Madelung constant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaYou would need to know the bond energies in the crystal and energies between ions in the melted form, not just adjacent ions but more distant ones too. So horrifically impractical. But I think you are on the right track. It is not that God monitors each sodium thiosulphate crystal and zaps it when it reaches 48.3°C, but that foreordained the chemistry of sodium thiosulphate when he created designing a universe where sodium, oxygen and sulphur would be forged in the heart of stars. Same as he foreordained life when he designed a universe where three helium atoms would merge and form carbon.

If so, is that 0.05 AU small enough to change everything? Why do you say this kind of knowledge is lie?
------
Side point: what would that 0.05 AU different save the earth from becoming another Venus? You must know something I don't.
Because the inference in the videos I see (or internet posts) tries to imply far smaller changes would be problematic. I have seen Creationists state a 1 mile change would be a disaster. 0.05 AU is about 5 million miles - and as I said that is being quite conservative.
And remember this habitable zone would change over time dependent upon the suns luminosity and the earths atmospheric makeup.
Are you joking with that comment? Utterly negligible - a thousand mile change would be negligible never mind one mile. What exactly are the parameters you have in mind? Remember the difference between aphelion and perihelion is about a 5 million km difference. So what parameters are fluctuating wildly due to the existing effects of the Earth's eccentricity?A LOT parameters of the earth will probably be different if the distance is 1 mile closer or farther from the sun.

The moon's orbit is changing. It has been gradually moving away from the earth over billions of years.
Don't know why you are saying the moons orbit would be different if we were a mile closer to the sun, but are you saying life on earth would be different, like stepping on a Devonian worm and the earth ending up being ruled by trilobites or intellectual velociraptors? Or are you saying conditions on earth would have been so different life could not have evolved or survived? Because that is what goldilocks is about, it not about different, but being able to support life.That is my argument. The earth changed with the moon's orbit change. If the moon changed in a different way, then the earth will become a different earth.

If you apply the science idea "the present is the key to the past" then the moon would be touching the earth 1.5 billion years ago.The moon's orbit is changing. It has been gradually moving away from the earth over billions of years.
Life on Mars is still in the science fiction phase. Abiogenesis research is doing so badly they need to have life start somewhere else besides Earth.Mars could be a good example. Life was possible on Mars, was it?
If the current process of the earth in the solar system continued, would the earth become inhabitable before the sun runs out? If not, then the condition of the earth must be a special one.
It is not impossible that the 1 mile difference at the beginning would upset the balance.
The earth will not be suitable for life when the sun expands into a red giant, it was almost unsuitable when it turned snowball. Venus might have been suitable for life in the past, and mars might have been too. So it is not so much exact distance as window of opportunity that opens up with changing composition of gases and the sun gradually warming. A mile closer and we could have started that bit earlier, a mile further away and we would have had to wait until the sun warmed up that bit more.Mars could be a good example.

Not if you apply it properly. It isn't a case of find out how fast the moon is receding and run that back a few billion years. The moon is attracted to the earth by gravity, if the moon is moving further away there must be forces at work causing that and we need to understand those forces to understand what happened in the past. The forces are caused by the earth rotating faster than the moon orbits, as the earth rotates it pulls the tides ahead of the moon, which in turn pull the moon forward making it go faster and into a higher orbit. The same force causes a drag on the earth's rotation making the day longer.If you apply the science idea "the present is the key to the past" then the moon would be touching the earth 1.5 billion years ago.
I'm sure the earth orbit is not a perfect circle as even the sun suppose to wobble by the pull of planets so I seriosusly doubt a mile would make any difference.
There are many factors that would determine the exact distance of earth and moon ( like for example the location of the continents and depth of the continental shelves in the past) which is why I use "the present in the key to the past." (not that I'm a believer of this assumption) Of course evolutionist dogmatically states the moon has orbit the earth 4.5 billions years so they made their assumption fit the math just like they do with dark matter and dark energy.Not if you apply it properly.

Go back to when the moon formed. If the moon was formed inside the geosynchronous orbit distance*, the moon would orbit faster than the earth rotates, tides would lag behind the moon so the pull would be in the opposite direction slowing the moon down and dragging it to earth. If it formed in geosynchronous orbit the tide would be very high because the moon would be much closer but they would just bulge where they were. There would be nothing to pull them forward because the moon would be stuck above one place on earth. The moon would stay at the same distance. Just outside geosynchronous orbit and while the tides are very high, the difference in speed between the earth's rotation and the moon's orbit would mean the moon's recession rate would be infinitesimal, very slowly increasing as the moon got further and further out.
So if you wind the system back The further back in time, the nearer you go to geosynchronous orbit, the slower you are approaching it. Keep going back the slower you get, never getting to geosynchronous.
*a closer geosynchronous orbit than now because the earth was rotating faster.
