Please see post #379 actually.

I don't know if you are being so crass because you are trying to make me angry or you thin kit's funny but it isn't working mate.

@Alcar in particular I just feel sorrow for you mainly for reasons like how it must be said when you are thankful for something before realising you have no one to be thankful to who is worth it.

If the solar system was brought about by an accidental collision, then the appearance of organic life on this planet was also an accident, and the whole evolution of Man was an accident too. If so, then all our present thoughts are mere accidents - the accidental by-product of the movement of atoms. And this holds for the thoughts of the materialists and astronomers as well as for anyone else's. But if their thoughts - i.e., Materialism and Astronomy - are mere accidental by-products, why should we believe them to be true? I see no reason for believing that one accident should be able to give me a correct account of all the other accidents. It's like expecting the accidental shape taken by the splash when you upset a milk-jug should give you a correct account of how the jug was made and why it was upset. - C.S. Lewis, remember (oh and this counts for this argument and the solar system and life one as well.
