Are you as forgiving as God is?

In order to grasp the number "quadrillion," all the grains of sand on all the planets in the universe is often used. If the energy in the universe was off by one grain of sand, our universe would not be possible.

This one particular answer was plausibly denied for years, as being just too impossible to happen. I suggest that the props are quickly disappearing for gnostics or atheists.

I feel no obligation or desire to disprove God's existence. Why should I? If it's just an exercise (to see what happens, as you say), well, I don't even know how I'd go about trying.

Unlikely does not equal impossible. We are here. Any miraculous explanation of how we got here is speculation.

If there is a sentient being that created everything, fine. He appears to have wound the clock and stood back to watch (if He is even watching at all). I think if He gave us a written instruction manual, He would have done a better job than any of the candidates I know about. (Not that I have studied them all.) One of the many scriptures that make sense to me and ring true is this one: God is not the author of confusion.
