Mar 29, 2025 at 18:05 comment added Miss Understands When I ask this question of other people, I make it a Smiley face in the sky made of stars, and my question is how much like a human face would it have to look in order to make everybody say that it's artificial?

Feb 3, 2024 at 4:17 comment added Syntax Junkie I feel like this question is just a tautology in the form of a question. The (a), (b), and (c) conditions imposed are pretty unrealistic. It seems like you're coming very close to asking, "If you could rule out everything except a supernatural being as a cause, would the cause have to be a supernatural being?"

Feb 2, 2024 at 14:46 comment added Mutoh I think you'll find this article to be a good read, it's an Aristotelian-Thomist explanation for a similarly imagined scenario: Signature in the cell?
