The fine tuning argument
#12
RE: The fine tuning argument
Solja you've got your maths upside down, you have made very likely things seem unlikely.

Imagine this you're walking down the road, you see a number plate on a random passing car say, h07 249, you say 'now what was the chances of me seeing that particular number plate'?

The fact is that if the universe was different enough for life to not exist then we wouldnt be having this discussion.
This does not mean that god set laws of physics. We dont know what did, but it is classic god of the gaps to make it yahwehs work.

And you see this as strong evidence for god! thats a big fail I'm afraid.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
