Beating Astronomical Odds

Unbelievable. Or not.



Everything, everywhere, is currently defying astronomical odds. Nobody cares, though, unless you can somehow correctly assert the outcome ahead of time. Nobody was there to do that at the big bang. Nobody was there to say that all this is happening because over 13 billion years from now, there will be humans, and it's all for them. Normally, I wouldn't believe that anyone could have such hubris. Then, I met some theists. They say that indeed everything was specially fashioned for we humans. And who told them that? Why...other humans, of course! Inevitably, though, the universe will reclaim them.
