Id say, in terms of planets within what we speculate (and could be wrong) is the goldilocks zone.....its 1 outta 1. Earth.
Speculative ~ but 1 for certain is that the elements that exist everywhere in the Universe made it possible over just millions of years, and the Universe is 14 BILLION years old.
you dont know what kind of life and or intelligence would have come about..Id say, in terms of planets within what we speculate (and could be wrong) is the goldilocks zone.....its 1 outta 1. Earth.
As the OP points out, it takes FAR more than simply being in the proverbial "goldilocks zone". There are literally thousands of variables and conditions which had to be present and events which had to occur or intelligent life as we know it wouldn't exist here. Again, had it not been for a cataclysmic event that wiped out dinosaurs, mammals like humans wouldn't have evolved to anything larger than a small dog, much less intelligent life.
Thats ...Speculative ~ but 1 for certain is that the elements that exist everywhere in the Universe made it possible over just millions of years, and the Universe is 14 BILLION years old.
Yep... 14 billion years and only within the past 100~200k years did intelligent human life emerge. That was after a series of events like the elimination of predatory reptiles which enabled mammals to thrive. And going back even further, just the variables like an ocean with tides caused by a moon, atmospheric pressure which enables water to remain stable and not evaporate out into space, a molten iron-nickel core which created an electromagnetic protection field around the planet to shield life from deadly cosmic rays and radiation, a quirky wobbling rotation caused by whatever collided with the Earth to form the moon, setting up "seasons" of which life cycles are nearly universally dependent... on and on and on... countless variables that don't "just so happen" to exist everywhere in the universe.
"god isnt imaginary" is an absolute.The chances that physics can create life are 100% true. Here we are... The chances that an imaginary "god" can create life are 0% true.
Why can't physics create life from inorganic materials?
I agree, an imaginary god can't create anything. God isn't imaginary.
you dont know what kind of life and or intelligence would have come about..
you also dont know what, if any, species may have been intelligent pre-human here on this earth
you also dont know how common or uncommon those "thousands" of factors are...over the VASTNESS of a damn near infinite universe....over BILLIONS of years
our evolution mat have even been SLOW in comparison..
we may not even be intelligent, relatively.
Not to mention, Speaking on how many years it took and what processes had to be present regarding HUMAN life ~ is a non sequitur comparison to the infinite possibilities of other forms of life.
We have studied a pebble.
We RECENTLY discovered life on our own earth living in conditions we previously thought life wasnt possible. Thats hilarious.

Again, the OP is not debating the possible existence of ANY life elsewhere. It's not even arguing there isn't intelligent life elsewhere. Trying desperately to twist and morph my argument into that so you can defeat it is pretty cowardly, if you ask me.
I mean.....If he's real, sure he coulda.you also dont know how common or uncommon those "thousands" of factors are...over the VASTNESS of a damn near infinite universe....over BILLIONS of years
You're right, God could've made it happen all over the universe.
unique? rare? haven't you noticed that the earth is teeming with diverse forms of life?
How did it originate?

How did it originate?
Most likely it originated elsewhere, wherever the 96% of the matter that we can't see in the universe is.
How?
Every plant that breaks through the surface of the earth to live under the sun was first planted below the earth in the form of a seed by living beings from another sphere of intelligences.

But what you are offering are faith-based opinions. I have no problem with faith-based opinions on this question because none of us know for certain. What I reject are SOME people who want to claim their faith-based opinions are FACTS or that their faith-based opinion is more valid than others because they think science supports them.
I like to think of it as more of an educated guess. Thats why I said most likely.
If 96% of the universe is invisible to us then it would seem like everything that we know about life is from the perspective of living underground, just like 96% of life on earth is happening above the surface, beyond the range of perception for anything living beneath the surface, in the dust of the earth.

Educated guessing is fine but we have to remember that we've made lots of educated guesses that turned out to be completely wrong. Science is the practice of discovery through observation and testing, not guessing educationally.
You are correct, up until about 15 years ago, every physics book in the world was wrong. They all stated the universe was mostly comprised of atoms. We now know that it's mostly dark matter and dark energy, of which we cannot physically interact. A century ago, we thought the smallest thing in the universe was an atom... until we split one open and all kinds of other shit came tumbling out.
Not true. They replicated what earth was like back then and mold formed.Scientists think life starting on a new planet is common. Carbons cling then multiply. Rocks amino acids mold . You need water though. Too bad we probably will die before we discover life elsewhereEvolution is a scientific theory. Your FAITH in God is not scientific or all.
Evolution does not explain origin of life, sorry!
That's a faith-based speculation that has NEVER been proven with science. You cannot replicate the process in the most sophisticated lab environment with all the genetic tools and materials at your disposal. Carbon doesn't simply cling and multiply, mold doesn't spontaneously generate. That's a debunked theory from the mid 1800s disproved by Biogenesis.
