Islam is a cult created by a psychopath. It cannot be reformed. It must be eradicated. Islam must be eradicated not because the Quran says Earth is flat or the shooting stars are missiles that Allah fires at the Jinns who climb the heaven to eavesdrop on the conversation of the exalted assembly. These stupid tales could even amuse us. Islam must go because it teaches hate, it orders killing of non-Muslims, it denigrates women and it violates the human rights.

"What are the chances?" Well, look at the evidence for the expansion of the universe, and realize that, whatever the chances, it happened.

The key word is "evidence," something religion eschews.

You make claims about god, but I ask you, how do you tell the difference between supernatural that exists and supernatural that does not exist?  In other words, by what process do you determine that you're correct about god, and others are incorrect?

The chances of the universe "happening" = 100%.

Religious doctrines were not divinely inspired, they were inspired by humans' imaginations, and their observations of the world around them. They were the primitive sciences of our ancestors. We've done much better since then, especially in the last 400 years, in explaining the world around us, and ourselves.

What is the chance of that happening?

Christians believed for 98 000 years heaven watched misery, suffering, high infant mortality, famine, disease and a very low life expectancy. And then 2000 years heaven says it is now time to intervene. We will send down God's son and murder him in an illiterate part of the middle east.

And atheists are irrational
