We Never Know
No Slack
I've seen the odds argument on here many times about life arising on earth/right chemical mixture, etc.
Ponder this for a minute. I would have never thought it true.
There are more ways to arrange a deck of 52 cards than there are atoms on Earth.
It seems unbelievable, but there are somewhere in the range of 8x10^67 ways to sort a deck of cards. That's an 8 followed by 67 zeros. To put that in perspective, even if someone could rearrange a deck of cards every second of the universe's total existence, the universe would end before they would get even one billionth of the way to finding a repeat.
