Fine Tuning

From galaxies and stars down to atoms and subatomic particles, the very structure of our universe is determined by these n These are the fundamental constants and quantities of the universe. Scientists have come to the shocking realization that each of these n If any one of these n There'd be no stars, no life, no planets, no chemistry. Consider gravity, for example. The force of gravity is determined by the gravitational constant. If to understand how exceedingly narrow to get a handle on how many tiny points on the dial this is, compare it to the n If the gravitational constant had been out of tune by just one of these infinitesimally small increments, the universe would either have expanded and t A change in its value by a mere one part in ten to the one hundred and twentyth parts would cause the universe to expand too rapidly, or too slowly. In either case, the universe would again be life pro Or another example of fine tuning. If the mass and energy of the early universe were not evenly distributed to an incomprehensible precision of one part in ten to the one hundred and twenty the fact is, our universe permits physical, interactive life only because these, and many other n Wherever physicists look, they see examples of fine tuning. The remarkable fact is that the values of these n If anyone claims not to be surprised by the special features that the universe has, he's These special features are surprising and un What is the best explanation for there are three live options. The fine tuning of the universe is due to either physical necessity, chance, or design. W According to the precise values of these constants and quantities could not be otherwise. But is t Is a life pro Far from it. It's not only possible, it's far more The constants and quantities are not determined by the laws of nature. There's no reason or evidence to suggest that fine tuning is necessary. How about chance? Did we just get really, really, really, really lucky? No. The probabilities involved are so ridiculously remote as to put the fine tuning well beyond the reach of chance. So in an effort to keep they imagine a universe generator that cranks out such a vast n However, there's no scientific evidence for the existence of t It cannot be detected, observed, measured, or proved. And the universe generator itself would require an enormous amount of fine tuning. Furthermore, small patches of order are far more probable than big ones. So the most probable observable universe would be a small one inhabited by a single, simple observer. But what we actually observe is the very t So even if the multiverse existed, w Given the implausibility of physical necessity or chance, the best explanation for why the universe is fine tuned for life may very well be it was designed that way. A common sense interpretation of the facts suggests that a super intellect monkeyed with physics and that there are no blind forces worth speaking about in nature. The n There is for me powerful evidence that there is somet It seems as though somebody has fine tuned nature's n The heavens declare the glory of God. The skies proclaim the work of Day after day they pour forth speech. Night after night they reveal knowledge.
