And how do you come to that conclusion?
Even if the chances of a universe capable of life were a million to one, we're privy only to that One, with an order that generated us. Who can say how many others have been created? Who knows how many are capable of life?
We have a sample size of one. You're drawing some remarkable conclusions from a single exemplar.
Huh?
If you look at applied science and engineering, where you need to build things that can hold up under the pressures of physical reality, random does not work. There needs to be order in terms of rational laws, materials and sequences for building. You need to minimize random, such as minor defects in structural steel, that you anticipate, test for, and correct.
If there was no God; planner to engineer the universe, so it all functions properly in rational ways, you would have a random universe. You would not be able to engineer a bridge, in that type of universe, where anything can happen, including the bridge standing on a good day. The random universe bets on the lottery, which is not a reliable source of income. More can, and will go wrong, or fall short.
What is key to engineering a bridge; universe, is being able to see or anticipate the future. This requires consciousness. Consciousness can anticipate the future. This allows you to correct the present; make adjustments, so the final bridge is safe and will last. To do this you need rational equations and relationships for the universe. The human imagination allows us to anticipate and plan for the future, but these plans only work when we have rational laws. The sun is reliable and not subject to periodic disappearing to satisfy the gods of random. We can plug into the gravity equations and know what needs to be done for a future moon mission, with great accuracy. Gravity is solid and reliable and not random. If you lived in a random world, where anything goes, you are stuck in the present, fearing the future; fear of novelty.
If we start with nothing and had no God or consciousness of the future, how does the universe get started? You might be able to wait for a random hocus pocus. But in a rational world, you would look into the future, to where you need the universe to go; place for life. From there you will reverse engineer, so the order in the present is already partially aligned with future needs. Our early universe made a lot of H2O.
But if things are random, looking to the future is not an option, since you need to depend on too many unlikely events, all having to align at the right time. You get stuck at the step one, singularity, with only irregular pulsations. There are too many places to go or not go? You do not want to start only to have to abort and start again since you have a bottleneck. Better to plan before acting.
Being made in God's image is about this human ability to reason and anticipate the future, so we can create and advance reality using the matrix of a rational universe, which offers such a possibility. We are an extension of an early engineering effort.
We; human consciousness, can not only can anticipate the future, due to the rational laws of the universe; math, but we can also look backwards to the past. Evolution goes back to the past and it brings the past to the present. But we cannot change the past, even if we go back; mentally. The dinosaurs were once here, period.
Going to the future, however, does allow one to make changes, since the future can be anticipated and is still unfolding. I can pull the shell off the opening seed, so the little seedling inside, can get out easier, by tomorrow. Or I can leave it to fate, which in our rational universe, is still subject to rational laws we could anticipate. This is why I helped the little plant.
In the final prophesies of Revelations, the old heaven and earth disappear and a new heaven and earth appear. This anticipates a future, where what was learned from this first pilot study universe, is integrated into a final, ready for prime time, Production universe. The imagery shows how God anticipates the future, and this has been copied by humans; ego=Adam, who now can create and expand upon creation, via consciousness; in the image of God.
If you believe in science fiction and advance life and consciousness beyond modern humans, they will be like gods to us, who will anticipate even further to the future of consciousness, when there is a God of gods, who can create a universe from hidden energy; with no bugs. We will come full circle. Belief in God anticipates a future of planning and extrapolating.
