A Challenge for the Atheist

That isn't what the Anthropic Principal states.

The entire line of questioning appears to be crafted to guide the respondent to a particular answer of this particular question - which in itself is mis-characterizes the AP.

It's similar to push-polling, and pretty fucking intellectually dishonest.
