Late in general
from the God delusion wiki:"He writes that one of the greatest challenges to the human intellect has been to explain "how the complex, improbable design in the universe arises", and argues that there are two competing explanations:A theory involving a designer, that is, postulating a complex being to account for the complexity that we see. A theory that explains how from simple origins and principles, something more complex can emerge. This is the basic set-up of his argument against the existence of God, the Ultimate Boeing 747 gambit,[15] where he argues that the first attempt is self-refuting, and the second approach is the way forward.[16]"there is no good scientific evidence concerning how the universe initially came to be, so this isn't nearly as strong of a point he makes it out to be. i would trust my instincts, especially after reviewing the evidence to the contrary, and realizing it supports my beliefs (that there is a god, concerned with human behavior, something like we our the center of the universe)
