Sam.
Sam, I understand the odds were calculated for the raw ingredients, (carbon, oxygen, heat....) to come together for the existence of single cell organisms; before the billions of years of evolution took place. I accept that these types of calculations are based on inductive logic, using facts as perceived by humans, but that is all we have to go on outside of (trust) writings. I use the term belief to denote an acceptance by the "atheist" that their position is correct.
You make interesting points. I look forward to further debate. (esp. when I have more time!) I point out that I have only minimal philosophy knowledge.
