Why ... (2)

[Oncedeceived]

The same way that you need to know the number of lottery tickets sold in order to calculate the probability of someone winning the lottery.

The lottery is one system. The universe is one system. The people that buy the tickets of the one system determine the probability of winning. The constants and the requirements of life are the people in your analogy and the universe the lottery. There are many lotteries but we can calculate the probability using one lottery and the people who buy the tickets. The same can be said of the universe. There may be multi universes but we only need this one to calculate the probability. Fail.

Evidence please.

The evidence is in our experience, in the empirical observation. You need to provide evidence for other universes. It is your claim that there are other universes other than the one we preside in. Your claim, your burden of proof.

You are claiming that there are no other universes. I am asking you to support this claim with evidence.

Doesn't work that way. You claim that there are other universes and it is your burden of proof.

Once something occurs the probability of it occuring are 1 in 1.

Take it up with Smolin.

I am saying it is not.

Like I said, if you want to believe that we were lucky enough to win the universal lottery that is your choice, but it doesn't make your case to effective.

Does the lottery have to be designed so that specific people win?

We are just those lucky ones in the universal lottery . How fortunate for us. However, I think it is pretty ineffective as an argument in my opinion.

You never presented evidence as to why the universe appears to be designed. You just assumed it.

That is completely false.

You are assuming your conclusion.

I am using a statement based on scientist's claims. That is what I am doing.

Oncedeceived, do you believe that there was a world-wide flood, as described in the bible story, and that there is empirical evidence for it?

God, or gods. No evidence.

God is the cause of the "Big Bang".

The cause of the "Big Bang" is God.

Therefore, the cause of the "Big Bang" is the evidence of God.

Find the cause of the "Big Bang" and you will find God.
