Why?
Would there be no physics or chemistry in a godless universe?
No…
Why would there be
any order or patterns, without an intelligence causing it?
That was the premise behind SETI, was it not?
Based on that premise, it simply doesn’t occur naturally.
Same with atoms: Atoms might exist, and attract, but doubtful they’d form any type of functional arrangement, without direction.
Even using supercolliders, the creation of human intelligence, functional arrangements of matter eludes them.
Yet with
all the functional arrangements & interaction we observe — you want us to believe it happened through mindless natural processes?
I’d have to see it. I think it’s fantasy, in support of a bias similar to that which Aldous Huxley described:
“I had motives for not wanting the world to have a meaning; and consequently assumed that it had none, and was able without any difficulty to find satisfying reasons for this assumption. The philosopher who finds no meaning in the world is not concerned exclusively with a problem in pure metaphysics. He is also concerned to prove that there is no valid reason why he personally should not do as he wants to do.
For myself, as no doubt for most of my friends, the philosophy of meaninglessness was essentially an instrument of liberation from a certain system of morality. We objected to the morality because it interfered with our sexual freedom. The supporters of this system claimed that it embodied the meaning - the Christian meaning, they insisted - of the world. There was one admirably simple method of confuting these people and justifying ourselves in our erotic revolt: we would deny that the world had any meaning whatever.”
