It is the "I" think it is all miraculous, so it must be.
Funny how the rabid theists call on science when they think it sup****ts
their view, but they conveniently ignore that fact that the group they
are quoting have, by far, the most atheists among it.
The intelligent beings in these regions should therefore not be
surprised if they observe that their locality in the universe satisfies
the conditions that are necessary for their existence. It is a bit like
a rich person living in a wealthy neighborhood not seeing any poverty.
