The 'Find Tuning' Argument Fails

The puddle says to the crater in the ground: "wow, you fit me perfectly, there must be a God!'

*rant inc.*

The fine tuning argument is so bad. You know, it is also crazy luck that we were born on planet earth—a planet that is good for humans—imagine if instead humans were born on the sun? It would be quite a bitch because we would instantly die.

Of course we find life in a universe and a planet that supports life, WE ARE LIFE. We wouldn't be here if this universe couldn't support us. Dr. William Lane Craig is a slimy pseudo-intellectual moron (to put it nicely).

In Shockofgod's video description he says "I do not have enough blind faith to be an atheist". But how much blind faith does it take to believe that the universe was created by an all-powerful, all-loving, all-knowing being that designed the universe with intent? The universe could have been created intelligently by 1,000s of cosmic gnome engineers! Or maybe it was created by unicorns getting into a fight with a turtle. Jokes aside, we KNOW complexity can and does arise from unconscious natural forces (e.g. biological evolution). Complexity is bound to happen, given enough time. Complexity by itself doesn't come about from nothing, but from a competition of efficiency among things that already exist.

This universe is much more complex than we can possibly understand, believers in God want to understand how it came into existence (i.e. how/why we are here), and would rather make up a fantasy than to accept their ignorance. It's okay to not know how we got here (we have no choice), it is mysteries like that which make life interesting.


Being an atheist doesn't take faith, it takes lack of blind faith in ideas which have been used throughout our history as a means of exploitation. Faith is not a good thing, it is the most overrated value in our society. For shockofgod to bash faith shows his hypocrisy, because with his religion (or the religion that is source of his god) faith is the most important value a person can possess. As an atheist, I have very little faith in anything. I am not trusting of ideas that cannot be proven, and am very skeptical of ideas in general. To claim that to be an atheists takes faith is the most ironic thing ever.
