    Another way to see the force of this argument at 22:52 is to see it this way, To accept a 1/10^40 random chance probability, would require one to reject affirmative claims with an equal number of probably exponents. It would be like saying I am 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999 % sure but then proceed to deny the result or take the unsupported position. Its not saying its impossible. Wolverine from the comic book is a literal possible being, but it would be silly to think a literal man with metal barbs in his arm will be cooking you dinner when you get home.
