Fine Tuning Argument

RE: Fine Tuning Argument

A Universe not capable of supporting life will have no-one in it asking why. Therefore, the fact that we are here asking these questions must mean that this particular Universe is capable of supporting life and that life has evolved to fit the Universe and not the other way around.

So, why are things the way they are? Because that's the way they are. If they were different then we would either be asking the same question about a different Universe or not here to ask anything.
