WHY DO THESE 140 EXAMPLES NECESSARILY REQUIRE CONSCIOUSNESS?
The first point to understand is that all numbers can be divided into 2 separate basic categories.
Category 1. Whole Numbers (or very close-to-perfect Whole Numbers).
Category 2. Numbers that are NOT (close to) Whole Numbers.
Examples of Category 1:- 27.9964 and 243.007 and 0.9993 and 2.006 and 16.99994 etc.
Examples of Category 2. 1.436 and 3.528 and 0.765 and 0.183 and 21.7243 and 101.2764 and 10.425 etc.
The 140 examples provided on this website fall into Category 1. This is in itself inexplicable in terms of Newtonian Physics.
Question:- Could these 140 examples all be simply “cherry-picked” chance occurrences?
Consider Example 1, which is 1.9998 (rotations). If you generated (successive) random numbers, you would need to generate (on average) 2500 random numbers before you would generate a number this close to a perfect whole number.
Now consider Examples 1 and 2 together, which are 1.9998 and 1.99818 If you (successively generated PAIRS of random numbers, you would need to generate (on average) 686,813 (six hundred and eighty-six thousand) random number PAIRS before one of these PAIRS would contain two numbers this close to perfect whole numbers.
(This is known as The Law of Compound Probability. You have to MULTIPLY probabilities together.)
Now consider Examples 1, 2, and 3, which are 1.9998 and 1.99818 and 2.99824
Now suppose that you (successively) generated TRIOS of random numbers (ie:- individual sets, each of THREE random numbers). In order to get a (separate) TRIO of numbers all this close to perfect whole numbers, you would need to generate (on average) A Hundred and Ninety Five Million TRIOS
In that case, the notion that all the 140 Examples provided could be simply “cherry-picked” chance occurrences is ridiculous. Chance occurrence cannot possibly be the explanation.
INTELLIGENTLY CONCEIVED CATEGORIES.
The next point to bear in mind is that The “Categories” involved in each example are Intelligently Conceived Categories.
For instance, consider Example 11. The category involves planets which are Naked-Eye Visible or “Telescopic” – AS VIEWED FROM PLANET EARTH. The Laws of (Newtonian) Physics cannot “know” that the observers (of the planets) are located on Planet Earth. For an observer located on Saturn, the set of “Naked-Eye Visible” and the set of “Telescopic” Planets would be different (ie:- different from these sets as viewed from Planet Earth). The Laws of (Newtonian) Physics cannot choose categories based upon “Intelligent Knowledge” of the observer’s location.
Similarly, all the chosen categories in all the 140 examples are Intelligently Conceived Categories. The notion that somehow (Materialistic) Natural Physical Laws can “choose” these various “categories” and create (close-to-perfect) WHOLE NUMBER Relationships between Sun Cycles and these categories – in 140 separate examples – is clearly ridiculous.
All we can reasonably say is that the configuration of these 140 examples speaks (loudly and clearly) to consciousness; and that explanations offered by materialism absolutely fall short.
