Just to interject with what I see as a fault in your logic
Except that any order he would have picked up the cards in would have been equally improbable.
The example clearly states:
“the chance that I pick these cards up in the right order is so low that its impossible”
“The right order” obviously meaning 1-13 ordered by suit, which is 1/(10^67). Analogously, “the right order” for the universe is the one in which all the various independent variables (as i establish in the OP on the other side of the cross post) take just the exact, precise value needed to actually generate a universe where life can develop.
So please do check out the post, I’ve linked to it above in a couple places. It’s an unfortunate drawback of this site’s cross-post feature that so little detail makes it through to here.
