scientist: &quot;well, because the values and Y and Z would need to be extremely different from what we observe to yeild a ratio anywhere near one million. the physical laws of our universe just don&#039;t work that way. if Y was that large the sun would explode.&quot;

creationist: &quot;oh.&quot;

creationist, much later: &quot;and so you see, students, out of the entire range of possible values, Y just HAPPENS to be exactly what we need for life to exist... why, if it were any different the sun would explode! clearly, only god&#039;s intervention can explain this precisely tuned value.&quot;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ridiculous and so aggressive yet again. why is this person making out that the universe and human life all happened at once like some kind of miracle? this also appears to be the reason why they also believe so strongly that the chances of us existing without some kind of creator are impossible? the universe is surely immensely large and extremely old, (if time even affects the universe at all is another question) therefore whats to say that the universe has went through many stages before eventually being fit enough to sustain OUR life after eons and eons?? and yes, that is only including OUR life, there could have many before us and many could exist elsewhere.]]></description>

I respect a lot more those folks who have faith, regardless of the overwhelming evidence against the very existence of ther sky fairy father, and don&#039;t need the concourse of science to make them feel more at ease with their beliefs.]]></description>
