God or Luck?

As a follow up to my recent blog (Anti-God campaign) on the campaign of atheists in London to purchase ads on buses that declare that God "probably" doesn't exist, I did a little research on one of the proponents of the campaign. One of the prominent supporters of the campaign is Richard Dawkins, author of The God Delusion . I thought you might be curious as to what Dawkins proposes as a replacement to God when it comes to the origin of life and consciousness. So I did a little research for you. According to Dawkins, such origins were triggered by an "initial stroke of luck". Excuse me? Is the a scientific explanation for something as signficant as the origin of life and consciousness? Now, I grant you that Dawkins has much more to say about the subject than that. But, it life has to begin somewhere, somehow and this is what he offers. I'm not making this up. My response to Dr. Dawkins would make a great ad campaign for the buses in London: "There probably wasn't an initial stroke of luck...I believe in God".
