It looks like what we're going back and forth about here is the Fine Tuning argument, and here's the problem I have with that (maybe it's already been covered): what the fuck is the Universe actually fine tuned for? If it's supposed to be fine tuned for life, then whoever did it did a piss-poor job, considering the sheer volume and mass of the Universe versus how much life there is. The Universe is producing a pitifully small amount of life, so if that's its job, it's fucking up big time.
Looking at what's actually in the Universe, it looks a lot more like it's fine tuned to produce empty space with occasional blips of plasma, rock, and/or gas. Life barely clings to the scantest of perches, while most of the Universe would kill anything instantly. Instantly.
Hell, not even our planet is finely tuned for life, especially not human life. There's so much stuff here that can kill you, much of which is completely outside the spectrum of our senses (radiation and natural gas, for example).

Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
