Physicists and cosmologists are qualified to talk about the cosmological conditions that enable life to exist. Like the presence of planets, stars, heavy elements ....

Are you concurring the life exists elsewhere in the universe???
And BTW, the presence of planets does not necessarily indicate the presence of life.. There was a time not too long ago when religionists didn't believe other planets existed.


RE: fine tuning......did your Intelligent Designer make a special design just for humans as your bible teaches or did his work evolve from earlier "designs"??

I have no idea. But intelligent human designers commonly build on earlier designs.

Has common sense ever invaded your brain?

You're not going to understand this but, the universe consists of about 100 elements, the simplest being hydrogen, ie one proton, one electron....all the rest are simply additions of neutrons or protons that increase the mass and atomic number and change the electrical and chemical properties of those elements....

I think I actually understand that as well as you do.

I doubt that, but I'm happy to see you google.....

Those additions would have occurred through nuclear fusion, ie the big bang.

Wrong. The big bang only resulted in helium and hydrogen. Heavier elements were formed through nuclear fusion in stars.

The stars formed as a result of the Big Bang causing further reactions , random reactions based on nuclear structure, etc....

All subsequent reactions occurred by electrical attraction or repulsion or collisions of atoms or molecules..... After 12 billion years, can you tell me what might have been????

I can tell you what I don't believe couldn't have occurred. The random collision of atoms wouldn't result in information encoded via a genetic code in chemical bonds.

Just as the random collision of atoms wouldn't result in a book filled with information encoded in a written language. Just as the random collision of atoms wouldn't result in information programmed on a silicon chip.

Your imagination can't comprehend how random collisions cause reactions to occur but you absolutely believe that a man could walk on water and rise from the dead....

Imagine you are in a giant room filled with shelves of thousands of chemicals some more common than others...what will happen if you happened to mix an hydrochloric acid solution with sodium hydroxide???? Viola!! Sodium Chloride, salt!! In the billions of years life has been evolving DNA has also been evolving and it doesn't take much of a change in DNA to create a different life form....compare man and a mouse....

Information isn't programmed on a silicon chip by a collision of atoms, the programming is done by electrically changing the on and off state of the device which can then be read electrically....
