Which is HONESTLY more believeable to you?

Question

As the question implies, please just answer it honestly and provide a reason why if you wish. Although I 100% believe scenario 2, I will choose the BA from either side of the argument, as long as you provide an honest response and don't make an attempt to be clever and arrogant.

Scenario 1: Mac & Cheese suddenly comes to be, with no explainable Cook behind it. Several billion years later on our insignifigant little planet, some organic chemicals randomly organize themselves into Mac & Cheese. A few billion years later, an incredible variety of Mac & Cheese exists.

Scenario 2: The master Chef (it doesn't have to be the Racheal Ray, it could be multiple cooks or just a nameless all powerful, supreme Chef it can be whatever you want it to be) creates Mac & Cheese and every ingredient in it.

Answer 1

2 points. I am shameless.

Answer 2

Your first Scenario is faulty. If Mac & Cheese suddenly come to be then how can these organic chemicals organize themselves into Mac & Cheese several billion years later? What happened to the first Mac & Cheese? Besides that, Mac & Cheese are not living and probably never have been (except for some really, really ripe cheese -- or if they stayed in the fridge too long, maybe). Personally, I like the Big Bang and *poof* Mac & Cheese. That's the way I like to cook -- demand Mac & Cheese and have it appear.

Answer 3

If there were no chefs known to exist, I think I'd go with scenario 1.

If I believed in a master chef no matter that there was no evidence of them, I don't think the existence of mac & cheese would make a difference in what I thought.

Answer 4

or how about master cook started 15 billion years ago and the meal isn't done, and everything that you think has no plan
seems that way because it is such a good recipe that no changes in the plan are required. But the plan doesn't care which macaroni noodle gets more cheeze, or if a few pieces are less cooked than the others, in fact the unplanned variations are part of the fun for the cook.

And the silly macaroni noodle thinks he is the whole purpose.

Answer 5

Scenario 2: That Master Chef would be my mama, whose macaroni and cheese is a million times better than anything Rachael Ray could come up with. It's even better than Paula Deen's.

Answer 6

Where did master chef get the ingredients to create Mac & Cheese? Did they just 'suddenly come to be'? With no explanation? Answer me that. Where did these ingredients come from?

Answer 7

Neither. There is no evidence to support either scenario.

In reality, scenario 1 has a massive amount of evidence and has no creditable challenging theory. The second primarily relies on faith, but its attempts at evidence consists of misquoting scientists, extremely poor understanding of principles and arguments from incredulity like this one.

Edit:
In science and reality, we do not evaluate things on believability but on facts and evidence. Many people believe untrue things, for example many people believed, and still do, that the world is flat or that astrology is real. Belief does not change facts.

Answer 8

Mac and Cheese suddenly forming in front of me would be f*cking amazing. I love that stuff. I want to have more faith in that than the other people. Chefs tend to doctor the cheese up, and not let it be awesome in its natural state.

Answer 9

Scenario 1 is too far out, mind boggling and kind of a "Twilight Zone" theory.

Scenario 2 is kinda arguable but more believable.

Answer 10

2

Because everywhere something is created - a intelligent must be behind it.

Specially if it so complex like a Mac & Cheese

-but man you making me really hungry....

Answer 11

And what solves the making of the cook, an eternal "mystery"? Recursion will not necessarily terminate 1 step back.
