Terry,
Fair point - the 10^22 - 10^24 number is a statistcal calculation based on our view of galaxies perpendicular to the plane of the milkyway, extrapolated outwards in every direction.
The Australian National University lists
visible stars (from Earth) as 70 sextillion, or 7 * 10^22.
I did a fudge - I took the total supposed Mass/Energy content of the Universe (and got the wrong number 10^120 atoms; whereas the minimal amount to drive inflation is 10 ^60kgs or 10^92 atoms) and divided it by the average Mass/Energy of a smallish size Sun being 10 ^32 KGs.
Lets scale down my numbers to be 10 ^ 24 stars - (and probably 10 times more dark stars and planets), But maybe it is as high as 10 ^ 60 we should know better within 15 years.
Still alot of stars and worlds to visit!

Your what are the odds question has a paradox in it
What are the odds a God exists: Probability = 1.
Odds that the Universe was made by random chance - show me that Universe and I can comment. For ours I would say Probability = 0 because nothing looks like random chance to me (it looks the exact opposite) form a perspective of Science.
What laws of science or facts of existence look random chance to you?
I agree that the Bible Old Testament is probably exceptionally flawed, but I see it as a work of mankind not of God. Example - Noah's world wide flood from 17th November 2,345 BC didn't affect Eygpt or China, there is no evidence the total volume of water doubled for a year than dissappeared, nor that the 10 ^ 25 Joules of energy required to move that amount of water was released on the Earths surface, nor are there gasses of rotting vegetation trapped in the polar icecaps ice core samples around those years. Similarily Genesis proposes a strange timetable for creation - 7 days and a Universe that is less than 20,000 years old - but looks like its 13.8 billion years old doesn't reconcile to me.
