The more I study about the formation of the earth, the more convinced I am that the earth is pretty much a freak occurrence whose conditions for life or intelligent life exits nowhere else.

I wouldn't call it a freak occurrence. But all the known evidence points to intelligent life being rare. As far as theology goes, our rarity would make us special rather than freakish. The existence of anything, especially consciousness is astounding all by itself.

Also astounding is that our solar eclipses are just about a PERFECT fit...i.e. the size of the moon appears to be exactly the size of the sun although their distances are much different. A science show I was watching claimed this could be unique in all the universe. Oh, and the fact that we have a SINGLE moon allows us to have life on earth.
