In the End, the World Was Created

Question

In your book God Plays Dice, you base the argument on the idea that our complex world could not have come into being by chance, because of the tiny probability that a chain of random events, within such a short time frame, could by itself create the world.
I heard an argument that probability cannot be used as an argument in a case where the very thing whose improbability you want to prove has in fact come into existence. In other words, even according to the probability claim, there is still a slight chance that the unlikely thing will occur. And if it did in fact occur, that is simply a sign that the dice fell the right way.

Answer

I’ve addressed this question quite a bit. See, for example, Column 144 and the discussion comments that follow it.
