They get it all so backwards. And being amazed at stuff isn't an argument.
I notice it's always, "Look how God dealt with this problem, and that problem, and got around that restriction and narrowly avoided..."
Hold up, who put all these problems and restrictions there? They come out of nowhere to explain why God did things in such a cackhanded way. They just can't keep their story straight, even if I allow them to make it all up as they go along.
I agree. So boring.
I don't understand how they can say: god is all powerfull (excluding the logically impossible but not the physical impossible), and thus implying that god can create us regardless of what the universe looks like. And jet the fail to understand, that because of that, there is no universe in which you can point and say: the universe is fine tuned for our existence.
They always seem to borrow on the stuff that science doesn't know yet (or may not ever know) and also say that it is not god of the gaps reasoning.

That I live on earth, which itself exists in an unimaginably wide band of suitable space, a total non-starter, for me.
Hehe....of all the universes that god could design, he happend to design one of the few universes that could support life as we know it under naturalism. Tiny change...
