The guy who killed Jessica Lunsford was a human being. The ones who ran Dachau were human beings. The same goes for the gulags. Caesar was a human being. Why do you think most humans are pretty loving and giving people? What, you live among Christians or in Christian culture or something?

In the totality of the billions and billions of people who have walked the earth, those people are isolated cases statistically.

Good. You understand there are no ETs and that Earth is a privileged planet. As far as things beyond the material, any thinking person would assume the supernatural.

Sorry for the confusion. I meant alone in the sense of being guided by some spiritual force. There is no rhyme or reason to the universe. You would expect there to be some sort of karmic cause and effect relationship if there was a spiritual force guiding us. If God did create the universe, he packed up his belongings and moved to the next town once the job was done. Why in the world would the supernatural be assumed? You assume based on what is known to you. The sun came up yesterday (data point), and the day before (data point) and the day before that (data point) and so on. Therefore, I assume the sun will come up tomorrow. Now, that may be wrong-- an asteroid could destroy the earth tonight-- but it is a reasonable assumption. I have no idea what data points you have access to that make believing in the supernatural a reasonable assumption.

How many billions of people have walked the Earth? How many murders have occurred? Rapes? Thefts?

There is no rhyme or reason to the universe.

So when someone cites shifts of light spectrum indicating the universe is 13 billion years old or so we can discount that because there is no "rhyme or reason to the the universe?"
