How many times should we spin a roulette wheel to prove the existence of God?

For all those who say that  low probability; therefore God, what is the highest probability for God being a necessity? 

What is the minimum number of times we have to spin a wheel such that the sequence of resultant numbers  proves the existence of God?

With that, another hopeless position is destroyed.

I wonder how anyone can even believe such things, though, especially from the arguments. The arguments are repulsive, and their users even less convincing than a block of wood.

I could create a better fairy tale by taking whatever drug it is that they need to be on to keep their faith.

I think the first question you would have to answer is what do you mean by God?

Supernatural being that alters the natural world.

How about we start with one version and try some others later?

I'd guess you already know the answer to that one.

If you don't, then you should be doing some research.

For the purposes here, it means an intelligent designer.

My lack of belief in God has nothing to do with probability. I don't believe because I've been provided with no sufficient evidence to find it reasonable to form a belief. You can spin a roulette wheel as many times as you'd like, but proving God has nothing to do with counting to a high number.

Spinning a roulette wheel to prove that is like spinning your car wheels. You're not going to get anywhere. At this point, the only thing that's going to convince me is when this ancient guy that's YUGE taps me on the shoulder and in a booming voice say's "BOY, LEMMIE TELL YOU WHAT....!

I'm confused, how would spinning anything prove or disprove the existence of God much less anything else?

By causing an event to happen that has a low probability.

For any further justification, go to those who use this argument, notably Stain.

Ohhh that's probably why I'm not familiar with the term, I don't read much of what he says anymore :D

Do you dare to enter any Mosque in the world and have the set to serve up that question to Muslims ?

Well, the question isn't limited by religion.

But Islam is even more irrational and dogmatic than your religion.

I told you it would be most unfair to enter a Mosque and upset these peaceful souls during prayer ....

When I hear the "the probability of the universe existing as is is so slim that god must exist!" I just say that the universe is trillions of years old and anything is possible with enough time.

I generally use some argument along the lines of this question against that claim.

Though I find it boring that we should search for counter examples against such ridiculous premises.
