I am not suggesting that the goal of all this emergent complexity is life. I am suggesting that our reality is an emergent complex system. Sustained emergent complexity is the goal of this fined tuned system we call the universe....not life.
Citation please. In what way is our universe more likely to lead to complexity, and why is it less likely that universes that are not?
By the way, there is broader problem with the complex universe argument. That is that it is only in a universe that encourages enough complexity to allow the development of conscious life that the question of complexity can be discussed. Thus if there are other possible universes, it is of no great improbability that we should be in one which allows complexity as we couldn't be in one that doesn't.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
