“You and I are quite grotesquely lucky to be here,” says the famed
evolutionary biologist, writer, and self-proclaimed atheist Richard
Dawkins. Yes, indeed, impossibly lucky as we shall see. Prof. Dawkins
also tells us that death will be like being under general anesthesia for
all eternity because “The brain is what we think with and the brain
rots.” The notion that after death there is nothing has long been a kind
of atheistic dogma based upon the understandable rejection that there is
part of a person that can continue after death—a soul. However, Prof.
Dawkins has unwittingly presented the most important problem that must
be solved to get to the truth of the matter—If we are so grotesquely
lucky to be alive, then why ARE we alive? The factual reality of our
personal existence right now requires an explanation that must go beyond
mere luck of evolution, or even God’s intentional creation.
