A room without books is like a body without a soul.
Facts are meaningless. They can be used to prove anything that is even remotely true.
Go then, there are other worlds than these.

Perhaps we are already in the trash. Perhaps we started out in the trash to begin with and grew and developed in the manner of unchecked mold. Does it really make any difference at this point?

Yes. If we're not in the trash yet, then the experiment still has worth. If we are, as you put it, an 'unchecked mold', then we'll need to worry about when the Lysol and fungicides get broken out.

The Lysol may already be out and we just don't recognize it yet

I'd blame the "designer" and point out all the faulty workmanship.
So much for omnipotence, can't even "design" one lousy biped, and get it to work properly.

I can just imagine it now, god "the student" joins a message board in a panic saying "My project was to design a universe and an intelligent lifeform. We had a month to do it, but I've been too busy partying and now I've only got 7 days to finish it, and I haven't even started!".

I think the end of the world will be more like 2013. There is always a delay in such big events.
