The ex nihilo argument is addressing the former -- the "where did the universe come from?" question. But once created, where did life come from, and is it likely it developed as we see it today out of purely random forces?
Good question. And I'm pleased to see you using the correct Latin terms, you without a classical education and all :-) I guess this is along the lines of the blind watchmaker theme?
Note: I did not benefit from such an education either!
The thing that struck me here is that the four known forces that we've discovered in the Universe are not purely random in their nature. So is the question really:
"Once the initial conditions, forces and matter in the Universe were settled upon, was what we see today always going to happen?"
If so, then The Creator doesn't need to tinker with the machine at all. Does He?
