Comment on Is everyone so depressed now partially because modern science has probably proven there is no god / afterlife?

  No, science simply doesn’t (and can’t) provide any answers or odds for or against god.
  God by definition isn’t subject to the laws of nature, and all science does is observe nature and come up with theories that fit the observation.

    It’s statistics, not science.

    But it’s pretty clear you have a tenuous grasp on both, at best.

      OK, what numbers go into those statistics? How do you calculate the odds of good existing? Should be precise, since it’s math.

  I’m not religious, but I want to add that the chance of us existing right now are inconceivably low so that’s not really an argument against God.

    You don’t understand statistics. It’s the opposite. The odds of life not existing in a universe this incomprehensibly large are infinitesimally small.

    It would be far more notable if 4+billion years of this shit and none of the literally countless planets capable of hosting life contained life.
