    Problem: incoherence. Uniqueness has no link with luck.

Imagine someone tells you 'Look how lucky this flea is, as it was born unique.' We know this is silly and we know the truth of the Satyr Silens who said that the worst for the man is to be born and the best thing for him is to never be born.

    Yeah. He's saying functionally that it's essentially impossible, not mathematically, because you have to make assumptions on whether the universe is infinite or not, and then further you'd have to be able to guarantee no mutations, and stuff like that. Mathematically it's not impossible if you have a closed set of possibilities inside a block of time large enough to run the entirety of those possibilities more than once... but realistically it is.

OR a child can be a person & personality from generations ago in either family's genetic history who is brought into this world & neither parent has the first clue who their own child is or what makes them tick. This may explain why some children feel like they were adopted or were switch at the hospital even they weren't.

    Actually, even if you dont account for twins. 1 in 70 trillion is not really impossible. For every single person it's heavily impossible, but among all humans who are, ever were and are still to become, there is a chance at least one repeats genom purely by chance, even though it's way more likely it never happens that doesn't make it impossible.

People don't know how to or can't solve many problems, so why not blame each other. It's way less stressful than fixing people's problems. No good reason why decent people can't work together.

    Ethnicity is not only about more similarity , but for a good part about famialarity of behaviours and a long grown cohesion. It is a thing in many countries. It does come with both advantages and disadvantages. Just compare life in Japan with life in the USA.
