DAVID: A good debate about who should be most required to offer proof of a chance start to life vs. a theistic start:-http://www.uncommondescent.com/origin-of-life/merely-random-origin-of-life-rabbi-averic...-Ugh, the usual pot versus kettle!
 
THEIST: Prove to me that the universe, life and consciousness originated by chance.
ATHEIST: I can't. 
THEIST: Yah boo, you're all airy-fairy faith.
ATHEIST: Prove to me that there's an uncaused, eternal, self-aware, let alone loving and caring mind with the knowledge and power to create a universe, life and consciousness. 
THEIST: I can't.
ATHEIST: Yahweh, you're all airy-fairy faith. 
AGNOSTIC: Now then, children, stop this silly squabbling. You're each as airy-fairy as the other, so come and have a nice cup of Earl Russell tea here with me on the picket fence.
