I have no idea how this could possibly scientifically verified or falsified. Do you?No, that's not what it means. Physical necessity (in regard to this argument ) simply means that the physical constants could not have been set to any other level. In other words, it would be impossible that there could have been a universe with slightly different settings for the constants in question.
Plus: Even if there could have been a universe with different conditions, this doesn´t mean that this universe could have been different.
Actually, I don´t care much what scientists believe in their spare time.However, many scientists believe
So you are peddling back? You presented the argument as a deduction.Well, this argument is an "inference to the best explanation".
And the odds of designing a universe with life in it are broader are higher than creating one?So this argument doesn't rule out chance totally, but it can be shown that the odds of creating a life-permitting universe is extremely slim.
The existence of this universe is a fact.Although there is a range of possible settings for many constants to support the existence of a universe (live or dead), the range required for life is much more narrow and when you begin to consider all of the constants that would have to be set just right for life, it only adds to the unlikelihood that a life-permitting universe would exist.
