"What is fine-tuning in cosmology? Here’s the claim: cosmic conditions that allow complex structures — galaxies, stars, planets, people — depend on a few “constants of nature” lying within tight ranges of values. But is fine-tuning valid?"
Atheists are frequently challenged by religious apologists regarding the "fine-tuning" of the universe we live in as evidence of a God. At the 14:00 mark in this video, physicist Fred Adams explains the parameters of what is involved with "fine-tuning" and talks about how our universe could have been MORE finely tuned for MORE life within it. In fact, he claims that given enough time we could design a better universe. Perhaps God can enroll in some classes.
What's Fine-Tuning in Cosmology?
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
