Some major errors or perhaps misunderstanding?
So, am I right in understanding you want to make this a semantics debate? Well, given that the conditions for life only existed for a mere 2 billion years surely demonstrates how extraordinary they are? After all, in context to the current age of the universe its only a fraction, and in context with the possible total age of the universe when time ceases to pass, it is but a flash of the eye.
You make a few major assumptions in your paragraph or commit errors based on what you seem to be trying to say. Perhaps you can expand on your reasoning so we can better understand your point of view.
You seem to be saying that the 2 billion year period is brief, but then relate it to the age of the universe. How are the two related to the subject of this thread in anywaay?
You then go one to talk about
and in context with the possible total age of the universe when time ceases to pass, it is but a flash of the eye.
which seems to have no meaning whatsoever either to this thread or anything else?

Re: Of hammers and men
You have to pre-conceive the pattern as I did with 500 heads. Only THEN do the odds become 1/2^500 it will occur.
Ahah.
So to find design you must first pre-conceive design.

why would apes or humans disappear?
very simple question to you. I have been told that we had acommon ancestor and we have evolved from apes. Alright. What do we become after mankind? If we are still evolving, then we must disappear and a new species must begin. Can you predict what will we become? Humanoid perhaps!!!!
Why would you think either apes or humans would disappear? Humans are still evolving, and pretty quickly. And, like the rest of the great apes, we exist right along side of our cousins the monkeys.
Evolution does not mean that the earlier species necessarily dies out. Most likely the next version of what ever humans will become is living among us today.

Re: why would apes or humans disappear?
Well, your comments about the Mormons and Hindu are simply wrong.
As to what we will evolve into? No one knows. It's entirely possible that we may be something closer to our current cousins, or we might be as different from what we are today as today's human is from what we were 500,000 years ago.
It all depends on what happens.
