No. Orbits are determined by physics; by mass, velocity, &c. They're calculable.
And what does life have to do with anything? Is there any evidence that life was planned, and a salubrious environment was intentionally designed to accommodate it?

I respect your view and reasoning on things.

I respect your view and reasoning on things.

That is like saying you respect his opinion and reasoning that ice melts, or that fire burns wood. All this stuff is easily observable.

No matter how anybody slices it, the Bible gives me instruction superior to anything else. That's just my take on it, you have your own take.

I am interested. All my beliefs are based on scripture, And I don't believe in hell, The truth is the only thing that is important.

How would you know if scripture is true or not?

 

[Subduction Zone]

Honestly if you can't recognize it would take a God, for the sun and earth to stay at this perfect distance. What's the point of any conversation?

The distance is not "perfect". What makes you think that our orbit has to be precise? It varies a bit over the millennia. The Earth-Sun distance varies annually by 5 million kilometers or 3.2 million miles.

The same way you do it, what makes better sense to you, is what I do, what makes better sense to me.

What makes sense to one person is trash for another person vice versa.

I am not talking about or orbit, I am talking about the distance between the sun and the earth.

 

[walt]

The distance is not "perfect".

The word perfect is relative to the conversation, for life to continue to exist for literally thousands of days and years, I would say is extremely perfect.

Not even one day goes by where the sun or earth moves too close to each other or too far away, creating too much heat or too much cold for life to continue to exist, I would say that is the perfect distance between.

I do not make that error. I do not go by "what makes better sense". I follow the evidence. Sadly I have found that many people do not even understand the concept of evidence.

It appears that you have admitted to not having a rational basis for your beliefs which means that you cannot "know".

 

[Subduction Zone]

I am not talking about or orbit, I am talking about the distance between the sun and the earth.

That distance is described by our orbit. What do you think that distance is? Do you not even know what an orbit is?

That is no more interesting that telling what brand underwear you prefer. Or your type of pillow.

1. the curved path of a celestial object or spacecraft around a star, planet, or moon, especially a periodic elliptical revolution.

In that sense then there could be much greater range in distance that is limited by our current orbit. That is why I said that For the Solar System the Goldilocks Zone goes from almost the orbit of Venus to over 2/3 of the distance from the Earth to Mars' orbit:

Thanks for your nice words.

Very good, you can copy and paste. Our orbit is as I just posted not the only possible orbit for a planet to have life on it in our Solar System.

Thanks for the conversation I like conversations that go somewhere, thanks very much.

Why can't we all just agree to disagree please?

Do you see why I objected to your claim of a "perfect distance". You probably got your claim from Christian apologists. I have to warn you that they are not reliable sources. They far too often are willing to lie to defend their beliefs. An apologist is paid to support the Christian faith no matter what and that makes them far less than reliable. They do not get in trouble if they are caught Lying for Jesus. Scientists on the other hand want the truth and only the truth. A scientist can lose his job if he ever willfully lies. A scientist can be wrong. There is no problem with that happening. But lying will end a career.

There is no problem with disagreeing. A person has a right to be wrong. But if a person posts 2 + 2 = 5 I will correct them. They can continue to believe that it is five, but I will correct them every time and even tell them how we know that they are wrong.

That's fine I believe your way is 2 +2 = 0
