If you met Putin with a

I noted your link above Plum….I’ll try to find the time. Off to dinner but here’s something to ponder in a similar vein. I once did a calculation myself of the likelihood of my existence, but somebody else actually published something:

‘Dr. Ali Binazir illustrates the extremely unlikely chain of events that would have to occur in order for you to be born with this example in a blog post:

Imagine there was one life preserver thrown somewhere in some ocean and there is exactly one turtle in all of these oceans, swimming underwater somewhere. The probability that you came about and exist today is the same as that turtle sticking its head out of the water — in the middle of that life preserver. On one try.

Dr. Binazir has crunched the exact numbers shown in the infographic below.

The path begins with the odds of your dad meeting your mom (1 in 20,000). This is multiplied by the chances of them staying together long enough to have kids (1 in 2,000), and so on.

The probability of you existing at all comes out to 1 in 102,685,000  — yes, that's a 10 followed by 2,685,000 zeroes! 

Binazir concludes that the odds of you being alive are basically zero.’

…….  

….so we don’t have to enter alternative realities to come up with infinitesimal odds of existing. Every human is very, very very lucky.

"What we remained stumped by is the transition from nothing into something."

The very basis of my point......start right there........define "Nothing". It's something I've wrestled with all of my life and I know I can't and I also believe no-one else can.

I think nothing is essentially inconceivable and almost nauseating to contemplate. And given time is infinite in both directions it can never be reached…. even the Big Bang assumes matter exists to expand. In mathematical terms nothing is a limit approaching zero, rather than zero itself.

Well, nothing is inconceivable but what is even more inconceivable is that something was created from nothing, how we'll never know.

It wasn't nothing, it was a singularity containing everything...evem more inconceivable 

And after all those trillion to one obstacles to finally get here...... as per Coolio, "death ain't nothing but a heart beat away"

So here’s another way of looking at it….it took 2 succesful (one in a hundred) copulations to create your parents. 4 to create your grandparents. 8 to create your great grandparents..,,,2 to the power 3.  But there are probably 80 generations between you the start of the Christian Era. That means there were 2 to the power 79 copulations….just since then to produce you.

For reference 2 to the power 10 is 1024. So imagine 1024x1024x1024 x1024…..basically a trillion, multiplied by itself….so a trillion trillion. That’s a lot of screwing. 

Of course there weren’t enough people on the planet to do all that copulating so there are massive redundancies in the chain…..common ancestors as it were.

And I’m not referring to the inbreeding typical of the Wallies for example, that produced a race beset by rickets….I’m talking about distant generations not cousins.

All a huge mind f….er mind copulation.

Haven't run for the hills, still watching you vid. It's over 3 hours long and I am touring Thailand.

Once I get a chance I will reply to you.

Don't remember reading anywhere in your posts I would run for the hills so it appears your just making shit up as per usual
