Oh. My. God.

You are so stupid, it feels like a slap in the face.

All your values are above 1. So OF COURSE your probability will
converge
on 100%. Okay, so you have a Masters in Physics... great. Now I
suggest
you go to your local high school and sit in on a basic
statistics class.

Even if 99% is valid (which it isn't), 99% is not a certainty. Hell,
if
99% was a certainty, no-one would ever win the lottery, or get four
aces
in a poker game.

If anything, this is God-neutral. One might argue that the Cartesian
system is the only way that life as we know it could exist. This
example is like saying that the use of ASCII is evidence of God.

You cant use your own theory as evidence for your own theory, fool.

D=10 is assigned because of your innate bias. If anything, this is
God-neutral.

ditto.

ditto.

ditto. You idiot. You have the same data item in here twice,
paraphrased.

ditto.

BTW the formula does not require 6 data items. You also can use any
number in the range 0-10. In fact, to prove God, you would need an
infinite number of data items in that range. If I showed you 6 smokers
who didn't have cancer, does that prove that smoking doesn't cause
cancer? If I showed you 6 smokers who did, does that prove it does?
No. Why? Because its a biased and undersized sample space. Thats what
you have given us.

And even if we accept the validity of your data item descriptions, the
values assigned to those items are arbitrary - which makes the values
themselves invalid.

This is so ridiculous, only a fundamentalist would agree with it.
Surely the existance of fundamentalist terrorists themselves is
contrary evidence.

You use your theory to bias your input to the function, and then spout
that the function output supports your theory. Duh. You use your
theory to prove your theory. Maybe you were a scientist in the 70's
and 80's, but you sure as hell aren't one now.

Maybe its time to pay the institution a visit, huh George?
