1. How can the Earth be so perfectly suited for life by coincidence?

I am new to this page, but this argument has been thrust upon me many times by religous family members and friends, my response is always similar to those mentioned above. The basis of evolutionary process is that life grows and gradually adapts to best suit circumstance and environment. The earth is only a good place for us to live because life has grown into it, NOT the other way around. Further more I believe that it is arrogant to believe that we are the only life in the universe, statistically it has to exist elsewhere within the vast universe.
