"You can conclude that the odds of happenstance origins are more remote than previously thought . Ruling something out , or considering it less likely by using numbers is a very scientific and logical thing to do ."
"Again , I do n't know what happenstance origins are , but ruling something out because it 's unlikely does n't work . I have made the poker analogy very often . If you are dealt in order , the 3 of spades , then the 5 of hearts , then the 9 of clubs , then the 4 of diamonds , then the 6 of hearts , would you decide immediately that it was not true ? The odds are ( 1/52 ) * ( 1/51 ) * ( 1/50 ) * ( 1/49 ) * ( 1/48 ) = 1/311,875,200 . This could be done for multiple games . The odds get slimmer and slimmer , but the difference is that something had to happen . No matter what cards you got , the odds of you getting the same card in that order would be this slim ."
