RE: Theists: What is the most compelling argument you have heard for Atheism?

I admittedly don't have a huge amount of detailed scientific training, but isn't the fine tuning argument basically
- the universe has property x
- the universe contains life
- life cannot exist without property x
- life exists
- therefore god?
Should it not be
- the universe has property x
- the universe contains life
- life as we know it cannot exist without property x
- therefore if the universe did not have property x, but property y, life that cannot exist without x would not exist, but life that cannot exist without y may or may not exist instead?
