What does one say then? Perhaps, "this is all just here, and that's all there is to say?" What do you say? To me the incredulity is a degree higher that everything happened just so out of nowhere. But you know by now that I am simple minded. We are here against relatively (astoundingly, actually) high odds whether accidently or intentionally. I don't see how intent changes that.

PS I'll be in Seattle the rest of the week and not contributing wisdom to the world wide web. PSS, It is Polkinghorne. I don't think you can count coup on P (for short) quite so quickly, speaking of sneaking a free lunch. My hunch is he holds his own explaining his expressions, and should not suffer defeat as a result of my feeble interpretations. In any case, the mathematical aspects of the contingencies remain identical quite apart from "intent." Incredulity may result from the numbers alone, and do not require an intent to inspire amazement. I guess it just happened? That's hoping for a free lunch.
