If there's a God then human beings could exist miraculously in a universe that did not support their existence naturally.  Existing miraculously would be evidence for God's existence.  The universe does support their existence non-miraculously.  The same data can't be evidence for a proposition and it's contrary.  So our "fine-tuned" existence cannot count as evidence for God.

If Everett's Many Worlds hypothesis is true then the reason our universe seems to be fine tuned for biological life is easily explained; by contrast the God hypothesis makes things even harder to explain because if the universe needs to be fine tuned for a lowly human to exist then it must be even more finely tuned for an omniscient omnipotent being to exist.

Fred Hoyle was a great astrophysicist and his book "The Black Cloud" is one of my favorite science fiction novels of all time, but his speculations about Evolution and biology were amateurish if not downright dumb.  John K Clark    See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis>
