I'd like to know where this alleged "fine-tuning" is? An overwhelming percentage of your precious universe will kill you within a heartbeat. Your god is one shitty tuner.
Face it. You evolved from a small band of ape-like creatures who adapted to a narrow range of environmental conditions and were lucky enough to survive and continue evolving. You'll just have to deal with it. That makes you special enough without inventing ridiculous gods to worship.
He's referring to fine tuning at the level of cosmological constant...for example, which isn't apparent, and requires no accounting for by anyone.
It's the hidey hole that classical tuners ran off too when it became obvious that the planetary goldilocks hypothesis was laughably wrong. Unfortunately, that hideyhole didn't last long either. Not that you won't find apologists like neo here schlepping it long after it's expiry date, just as they did previous notions of fine tuning.
