The scientists seem to think that it is highly unlikely for our universe to be as fine tuned as it is. They don't like God as an explanation so they think the multiverse is a good alternative.

You think it unlikely that our universe is as it is? I think it certain.

Yep, which only leaves the question of why ours is so fine tuned for intelligent life.

No, that's just asking why our universe looks like our universe. Answer: because it is.

In a certain type of probability yes.

How many types are there?

You might want to talk to the PhD Physicists that don't agree.

Sure. Bring them on. But of course your reply is not a reply.


I'm not trying to calculate anything.

Sorry, but if you are quoting probabilities, that's what you're doing.

No, I am providing scientific claims.

This would be far more credible if you would stop dodging question about what the odds actually are.

Does the sky reproduce other skies? That is a new one. ;)

Look at your reproductive-centric view of life. Time to check your privilege.

I'm also slightly amused that you didn't know that I was talking about the sun. But hey, keep posting how you're the one who understands science if it makes you feel better.
