Thank you to everyone who has posted a response to my question. I am sorry it could not have been more intelligent. I do not think I will be posting more questions for a long while.
If you read through some of the threads on this forum you'll likely see that I have posted on a number of science threads. I started with zero knowledge and have moved only slightly from that position. I'd suggest maintaining the degree of humility that you have because I've found that as long as I don't suggest that I know what I'm talking about people go easy on me.
Please keep posting and asking questions because you are far from alone in being here because you want to learn.
One more suggestion; I'd get hold of a book by Brian Greene called "The Fabric of the Cosmos". IMHO it is the best book available if you want to get an idea of what's going on in the physics world.
By the way, as far as a statistical impossibility goes, I do think that it is worthwhile looking at the number of things that are required to be exactly correct for us to exist and then come to your own conclusion about which is most likely; good luck or good design.
Everybody is entitled to my opinion.
