Logic fail!
The odds of something developing are nothing to do with the size of the body part!
And the odds of two of them happening would not be the original odds squared - I have no idea how he got this.
In fact, since one eye takes 1/4000th of the body, two takes 1/2000th so the odds of two eyes developing are only 1/2000! Practically a sure cert.
My head hurts now ...

I'm pretty sure that body mass ratio doesn't relate at all to the probability of body part evolution...

Logic doesn't work that way. I recommend hitting your head against the nearest lamp post until the doctor comes and takes you to a happy place.

Or, more relevantly, what are the odds of letusreason evolving a second brain cell?

Even IF your non-logic had any merit, simply having a huge number of creatures evolving would, inevitably, evolve eyes. And what do you know, 3 billion years of life evolving means lots and lots of living things for evolution to work with.
Or in short: you fail science hard.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
You're wrong, you're wrong.

Approximate volume of letusreason = 1 cubic decimeter.
Approximate volume of the Earth = 1.0832073 x 1012 km3.
Chance of letusreason learning how to use maths properly = fuck all.

Dear fundies, math is not your friend.
You could actually learn some math and science, but then you wouldn't need your bible.

But wait! The human eye occupies 100% of the area of the human eye! So what is the likelyhood of the human eye evolving? 100% And since there are two eyes, the likelyhood of them evolving is 200%!!!!!!

Now do the odds for hair follicles. I like big, irrelevant numbers.

Isn't it cute when fundies try to use logic to prove creationism?

Actually, since symetrical development is the norm (Animal and Plants, hell, snowflakes even) One is more unlikely than two.

Argument from Ignorance, Non-sequitor, and begging the question, jack ass. Three fallacies in one.
Just because something seems awesome to you doesn't lead to the conclusion that goddidit and it certainly doesn't lead to the conclusion it was Jebbus.

letusbeunreasonable seems to think that they evolved independently of each other.

So if it wern't for god we wouldn't have eyes? Or only one eye? Would we have eyes all over our heads?

If you could reason with religious people, there wouldn't be any religious people.

Ya know, I don't think the OP should be allowed to reason, if this is where it leads. Someone could get injured when their WTFometer explodes.
