That is not technically true. A typing monkey could randomly hit the keys to type out hamlet right away. It is highly unlikely that it would be the first thing, and probably equally unlikely to be the last thing, but since the possibility is there for the monkey to do it, it could happen anywhere within the lifetime of the universe. Also the people of phys org seem to be unaware of how big the universe is and how long it has been around. They also seem to be unaware that in the very short time the earth has been around, and things like monkeys have existed the works of shakespeare have been produced and even parodied and represented. It just seems to me that even if you do not believe in god, you have to admit that something about the nature of elements and matter causes consciousness and evolution of action and thought from purely predictable chemical and physical reactions to biochemical and nervous system responses among a number of species in one location in a relatively quick period in a vast number of ways. When you think about finite numbers like a google or a googleplex and that infinity easily includes these numbers, and our universe has multiple varying time parameters, the people who wrote that were fucking morons. According to the size of the universe and random chance we have identical duplicates in our universe. Before you get there I already concede the universe is not purely random, and therefor randomality would not apply, but it is conceivable that if there is a guided path and that level of possibility that it has occurred. The works of shakespeare are far less complicated to reproduce than a specific physical body.
You mean the meme picture that was quoted? I did not bother going to find an article that was not quoted based on a fundamentally flawed headline that showed the writers had a serious misunderstanding of math and probability. If that is your thing, feel free to find the article and come back to me with what is wrong with what I said about the headline. I have better things to do that to go find the Federal Farmers of the physics world and discuss this with them.
I saw some Mormons in my neighborhood today. Thank Joseph Smith they didn’t visit me. The Amish saved us though.
