A certain type of theism dominates Caroll's counterarguments; I managed to form these responses.
Life's significance plays a minor role in relation to the universe, if we looked at things from a personal perspective. But enlarging the field of vision would ensure that other variables -uncountable; to be honest- should play a severe role.
For example; the orbits of every planet, the amount of sunlight the earth gets; the density of the earth's atmosphere, the amount of waters on the earth's surface; all of this pours in the making of a tiny creature called mankind.
.God is obvious; we see his work every moment we look around. But our minds are limited. We can conclude a creator, some of us did at least, but to demand seeing God is Ithe ultimate insult to the reality of our own mind. Our eyes alone cannot handle looking at the sun; so no shame at all in admitting that our eyes cannot see the creator.
.If the universe is not finely tuned to support life, life won't exist. God does what he wants; including the creating of humans inside a ball full of water next to a burning star.
.We can't change the conditions which we are made in. We can produce imaginary images in our brains; but we can never change any variable. The universe came with these variables; for example existence meets non-existence. Everything we create, think or make, is a subject to this domain we are born into.
