Helping a Friend about the Nature of Science

Science is built on the idea that there is order in the physical universe.What is the role of chance in science?Yrreg

There is something that exists even on the quantum level, that is admitted by scientists, no?There is something that exists even in chaos as postulated by scientists.What is chance in science? If no one believes that chance is any cause of anything at all, that is fine by me.You bring in chaos, I would like to ask you what you mean by chaos in science.Yrreg

Life and the universe is not to be known just on the tossing of a coin.So, you all of us have got to go beyond and outside that mentality of understanding life and the universe on the basis of tossing a coin.You say that chance is probability.That is very good, because then it is not something that is absolute chance but relative only, relative to our capacity to see how a thing will undergo an event where it is the subject or the object, and what the situation of the thing will turn out after one occurrence of the event, then after n number occurrences of the event.Suppose now you want to find out how a thing that is without life develops into a thing that is living.Take for example you pick a grain of sand from a swamp and throw it up, a grain of sand from the primeval soup according to some atheist scientists from where life originated, by what they describe as the process of life coming from non-life -- abiogenesis (insofar as they can see from their eyes, that is).Acting in accordance with your mentality of tossing a coin, how many tossing do you have to do with that grain of sand before it develops into something else or its situation changes, for example, instead of being tossed by you up in the air, it simply gets blown away beyond your reach and sight by a strong wind.How will it ever get to become a first living cell at all?So, you have to be intelligent to know more about life and the universe than just saying that it is probability that explains everything.Of course you will say that it is probability working in the billions and billions of years.In which case you should be saying it is the billions and billions of years.That billions and billions of years of course will be your explanation for anything and everything, and it is not using your intelligence.Yrreg

Okay, explain how a nose came about to exist in your face and to operate for you to live healthily, with chance, or probability, or chaos (i.e., as exemplified by something, for example the flap of a butterfly's wing, happens in the initial conditions that can bring about a storm somewhere else...).Yrreg
