When
all potential possible outcomes are considered, both our universe and Earth are
way too perfect for life. Life would
not exist if gravity, nuclear and electromagnetic forces, the size and
luminosity of the Sun, the distance Earth is from the Sun, the Earth’s speed
of rotation and nearly perfect circular orbit, just right gravitational lunar
pull for moderate tides, the existence and placement of so many ores near the
Earth’s surface, the amount of radioactive heat generated in the Earth’s
core for creating a protective magnetic field but not too much volcanic
activity, etc.... were different in the slightest.
A basic principle of scientific analysis
is that when one observes highly structured order where you would expect
disorder, one can infers an intelligent creator.
This specialization of Earth is impossibly unique even when taking into
consideration that there are billions of galaxies with a billion stars each.
