Did you know:

There is 1 chance in 140 trillion that earth should exist.

There is 1 chance in 795 billion that life should have evolved on Earth.

There is 1 chance in 89 billion that life should have evolved into mankind.

There is 1 chance in 12 billion that mankind should have created the alphabet and thus civilization.

There is 1 chance in 6 billion that your parents should have ever met and got together.

There is 1 chance in 90 million that you should have been the lucky sperm that fertilized your mother's egg.

and for all that i'm always grateful
because it's not a matter of odds, it's a matter of God's will.

Yes!!! I was having this exact conversation with a friend today!!!

He quoted it as 0.1 % of a chance of all this existing.

And yet, neither of us decided there was a god.

Great post.

The Anthropic Principle puts even greater odds against the universe existing as it does.
