Can’t figure out how to get “pi” to show up instead of the smart symbol trash.

If Planck’s constant were off by the distance between these words, life as we know it would be impossible.
and that’s just one of innumerable factors that had to fit precisely and narrowly.
The odds of that happening are nonzero but so minuscule they may as well be zero.

If you know science you really cannot deny that there was devine input.

Especially if you have even a layman’s understanding of things like quantum physics.

"What is the usefulness of this number?" It predicts the time, in seconds, when a Trump/Cruz thread devolves to garbage.

“For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountains of ignorance, he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries.”

I’m fascinated by the # 1.67 showing up as a ratio in nature! The number of peddles on a flower, the ratio of eye separation to the width of the mouth. The probability that a length = 2 the separation between lines and how often the length will fall on the line.
The spiral of a snail shell!
Probably coincidence yet makes you think a higher power could be behind it!
Also, does mean anything significant ?
