Why the fine tuning argument is a pile of shit
#17
RE: Why the fine tuning argument is a pile of shit
There's a book on this very subject titled: "The Fallacy of Fine Tuning". I don't see how people can assume our universe is fine tuned given that we haven't observed any other universes. We don't know if life would be possible in another universe or even which constants change between universes.

Life on the Earth evolved for this universe and I would put money on life in other universes thinking that life could not exist in our universe. I am sure there is life as we don't know it out there. I would also put money on intelligent life on another planet in our own universe thinking their planet was perfectly designed for them. Perhaps there is life that is not Carbon based. There was a book exploring the notion of non-Carbon based life but I can't remember the title.
