I like when numbers come into this discussion.
Ooooo, I like numbers, too. Let's have a bit of fun with some, shall we?
I'm going to assume that you are 40 years old. That means you were born in 1974. In 1974 the world population was 4 billion. That means the odds of your parents randomly breeding with one another were 1 in 4 billion.
If your parents were 14 when they had you, they were born in 1960 when the world population was 3 billion. That means the odds of your grandparents randomly breeding to create your parents was 2 times 1 in 3 billion.
If your grandparents were born in 1927, when the world population was 2 billion, the odds of your great grandparents randomly breeding to create them was 4 times 1 in 2 billion.
The odds that you were born are 1 in (a hell of a big number, probably a lot bigger than 1 followed by 552 zeros). Therefore, you could not possibly exist and I don't have to argue against any of the patently absurd things you say because you aren't here to say them. What's more, you can't even respond to this argument because you don't exist.
(I picked the years I did for ease of calculation simply because they were round numbers, not to cast any asparagus at you or your family. Please don't get your knickers in a twist over the fact that I suggested your parents had you at age 14. If you push everything back a few years, the math gets more complicated but the general point is still valid.)
