A '''statistical impossibility''' is a probability that is so low as to not be worthy of mentioning. Sometimes it is quoted as 1X10^-50<ref>[http://www.evolutionthelie.com/probability-statistics/life-from-non-life-is-a-statistical-impossibility/ Evolution the lie; statistical impossibility]</ref> although the cutoff is inherently arbitrary. Although not truly impossible the probability is low enough so as to not bear mention in a rational, reasonable argument.
