Of course universe isn't fine tuned, just like the sun and stars we might be one of the multiple outcomes which comes out of the elements, consciousness might just be another feature of evolved brain. If it's fine tuned we should be existing right after the bigbang or something which makes not vulnerable to all the chaotic things universe , we are just to fragile just a small asteroid away from complete wipe.

That's just like saying, why is there something rather than nothing. It suggests nothing is the default which is probably incorrect. Still , the multiverse solution has one obvious glaring weakness. What mechanism can the creation of the universe use so that each universe is different? At that point, you're saying everything is kind of mathematical and unbound and universes can be anything and everything. Which is so radical that multi verse becomes less of an obvious solution

Not just multiple universes, but my understanding is that every time a decision is made, a new universe is created, over and over. Every possible thing that could happen will happen in some universe. This seems ridiculous. On the other hand when we say the universe is fine tuned for life, we mean for intelligent human life designed by a Creator, but in the scope of things we are but a blip of thousands of years in a 14 billion year old universe. It’s quite a stretch to postulate that the universe was created for us.

There are only two possible explanations: 1. The cosmological constants that result in the tendency towards life and intelligence and consciousness in the universe can only be what they are because of some deeper physical principle or property of the universe. Not too dissimilar from the accumulation of a pool of water at the bottom of a valley that ends up there because of the fundamental property of valleys and the downward gravitational pull on the water,by the very shape and nature of valleys. 2. There are multiple universes, each with varying and random cosmological constants (or maybe there are boundaries to they kinds of constants that can spring into existence, like integer multiples of smaller values, say). The universe we inhabit happens to be the one (and there may be more than one) that has just the right mix of constant values that produce a universe that behaves the way ours does and which supports the evolution of life, etc. Same analogy: kind of like many different types of valleys, some convex (which don’t result in the pooling of water at all), some sloping at a steep angle (which means the water runs off and doesn’t pool anywhere), etc. etc. There might be a way to test whether (2) is a feasible explanation. Model a universe that has different constants and see (theoretically / mathematically) if it can have a life-cycle or sustainable (even if briefly) existence at all. Or is there no combination of cosmological values possible that results in any kind of physical order? If the latter is provable then it would lead one to the likelihood that (1) is the correct explanation. Update: the notion of a “god” or conscious “creator” is pure nonsense. Firstly, if there were a “god” then it’s certainly nothing at all what religious believers imagine God to be like. It would be entirely uncaring and cruel without any morals. Like identifying hot as good and cold as evil. Secondly, this “god” must exist in some way and have arisen from something, and is possibly conscious and intelligent (to have been able to “decide” what to create and how). It may be that the “god” in question is some kind of creative force. We are created by our sun, for instance, at a deep atomic level. But we (now) don’t think of the sun as a sentient, interested, caring God with commandments. Granted, there are laws we need to obey in order to survive and thrive. We need the sun for sustenance, and if we “disobey” the sun’s laws, we will suffer or die (of burns or skin cancer or sunstroke). But, like the sun, any such “god” or cosmic creative force is itself derived from somewhere or something. And so we are back to options 1 or 2.

Universe having life for me is far more trivial than why an universe occurred how could a energy increase exponentially than Gradually.

Because what else would it be??? Epistemologically speaking, without the foundation of physical law then the universe would simply collapse in on itself. A chaotic mess. Take elements for instance. They are just Lie groups maximizing complexity and minimizing time, thus confining energy to a given position in space and time at varying degrees. The principle of least action captures this notion perfectly. This geometric identity is found all throughout nature. Fibonacci Sequence and other such fractals, are all indicative of the same thing. We over complicate such notions which by virtue of occam's razor is entirely redundant. But thats what makes life interesting I guess. As long as such concepts are not proposed by egoist beings who merely want to name each distinction after themselves and claim some accolade or produce complexity for no other reason but reinforce their own dogmatism. It is all relative in the end: time, space, motion and perception! And why shouldn't it be? We are quantum beings. We have a geometry. What makes us unique is our will. That will with which we exert a force upon the universe is our conciousness.

I agree. Also, I like that you mentioned the FS and fractals, as in my view the universe is undoubtedly a fractal. This is my argument to fine tuning. If we had a different universe, like, let's say we evolved with silicon instead of carbon; so a drastic world indeed. And the cosmological constants vastly different but good for life. We would more than likely say those are fine tuned aswell. So, my pondering is that the universe isn't fine tuned at all. Isn't it just how it is? We could easily say that many other universes that would be capable of supporting life be fine tuned. Know what I mean? It just so happens that we have those cosmic constants and not ones slightly or vastly different. Either way, we'd most definitely would say that any universe that we would happen to live in be fine tuned. But is the universe really ever fine tuned? In my view, I don't think it is. How can it be. Outside of earth, the universe is extremely violent and uninhabitable. The only place we know as of now where life is safe is earth, everywhere else is just chaotic. But even on earth it is a struggle. In the past, out ancestors weren't living per say but rather just surviving in extremely harsh conditions. I find it quite odd that a lot of people think that the universe is fine tuned. But of course, I'm up for a change of mind if there is a good rebuttal. I must say that the Anthrophic Principle is extremely strange. It does seem improbable that we have been born into this chaotic universe by against high odds, almost miracle esque.

@@SpacePonder we are fine tuned in that we have evolved based on the proximal variables which have accumulated over time. Random and uncertain but fine tuned none the less. In evolutionary ecology one learns that evolution is not goal oriented. It is dynamic in that there is not one set path. Our planet, our solar system, our galaxy are all integrated systems of proximal variables which interact and reinforce themselves over time. Similarly, at the quantum level, energy will organize itself and takes geometric shape based on what what is permissible. Density, temperature, and duration are all proximal variables which have shaped the cosmos. The difference is there may be certain geometries which are permissible at higher rates. This is why certain elements are found at higher abundance. The proximal variables say for a heavier element which is stable are such that you will only find them in supernovae, which only form from the most massive stars, which were only possible in the earliest most dense regions of the universe.

Awesome episode.

Perfect as always...

A segment from 'Saved by the Light of the Buddha Within'... My new understandings of what many call 'God -The Holy Spirit' - resulting from some of the extraordinary ongoing after-effects relating to my NDE... Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what some scientists are now referring to as the unified field of consciousnesses. In other words, it’s the essence of all existence and non-existence - the ultimate creative force behind planets, stars, nebulae, people, animals, trees, fish, birds, and all phenomena, manifest or latent. All matter and intelligence are simply waves or ripples manifesting to and from this core source. Consciousness (enlightenment) is itself the actual creator of everything that exists now, ever existed in the past, or will exist in the future - right down to the minutest particles of dust - each being an individual ripple or wave. The big difference between chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo and most other conventional prayers is that instead of depending on a ‘middleman’ to connect us to our state of inner enlightenment, we’re able to do it ourselves. That’s because chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo allows us to tap directly into our enlightened state by way of this self-produced sound vibration. ‘Who or What Is God?’ If we compare the concept of God being a separate entity that is forever watching down on us, to the teachings of Nichiren, it makes more sense to me that the true omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence of what most people perceive to be God, is the fantastic state of enlightenment that exists within each of us. Some say that God is an entity that’s beyond physical matter - I think that the vast amount of information continuously being conveyed via electromagnetic waves in today’s world gives us proof of how an invisible state of God could indeed exist. For example, it’s now widely known that specific data relayed by way of electromagnetic waves has the potential to help bring about extraordinary and powerful effects - including an instant global awareness of something or a mass emotional reaction. It’s also common knowledge that these invisible waves can easily be used to detonate a bomb or to enable NASA to control the movements of a robot as far away as the Moon or Mars - none of which is possible without a receiver to decode the information that’s being transmitted. Without the receiver, the data would remain impotent. In a very similar way, we need to have our own ‘receiver’ switched on so that we can activate a clear and precise understanding of our own life, all other life and what everything else in existence is. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day helps us to achieve this because it allows us to reach the core of our enlightenment and keep it switched on. That’s because Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what scientists now refer to as the unified field of consciousnesses. To break it down - Myoho represents the Law of manifestation and latency (Nature) and consists of two alternating states. For example, the state of Myo is where everything in life that’s not obvious to us exists - including our stored memories when we’re not thinking about them - our hidden potential and inner emotions whenever they’re dormant - our desires, our fears, our wisdom, happiness, karma - and more importantly, our enlightenment. The other state, ho, is where everything in Life exists whenever it becomes evident to us, such as when a thought pops up from within our memory - whenever we experience or express our emotions - or whenever a good or bad cause manifests as an effect from our karma. When anything becomes apparent, it merely means that it’s come out of the state of Myo (dormancy/latency) and into a state of ho (manifestation). It’s the difference between consciousness and unconsciousness, being awake or asleep, or knowing and not knowing. The second law - Renge - Ren meaning cause and ge meaning effect, governs and controls the functions of Myoho - these two laws of Myoho and Renge, not only function together simultaneously but also underlies all spiritual and physical existence. The final and third part of the tri-combination - Kyo, is the Law that allows Myoho to integrate with Renge - or vice versa. It’s the great, invisible thread of energy that fuses and connects all Life and matter - as well as the past, present and future. It’s also sometimes termed the Universal Law of Communication - perhaps it could even be compared with the string theory that many scientists now suspect exists. Just as the cells in our body, our thoughts, feelings and everything else is continually fluctuating within us - all that exists in the world around us and beyond is also in a constant state of flux - constantly controlled by these three fundamental laws. In fact, more things are going back and forth between the two states of Myo and ho in a single moment than it would ever be possible to calculate or describe. And it doesn’t matter how big or small, famous or trivial anything or anyone may appear to be, everything that’s ever existed in the past, exists now or will exist in the future, exists only because of the workings of the Laws ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ - the basis of the four fundamental forces, and if they didn’t function, neither we nor anything else could go on existing. That’s because all forms of existence, including the seasons, day, night, birth, death and so on, are moving forward in an ongoing flow of continuation - rhythmically reverting back and forth between the two fundamental states of Myo and ho in absolute accordance with Renge - and by way of Kyo. Even stars are dying and being reborn under the workings of what the combination ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ represents. Nam, or Namu - which mean the same thing, are vibrational passwords or keys that allow us to reach deep into our life and fuse with or become one with ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’. On a more personal level, nothing ever happens by chance or coincidence, it’s the causes that we’ve made in our past, or are presently making, that determine how these laws function uniquely in each of our lives - as well as the environment from moment to moment. By facing east, in harmony with the direction that the Earth is spinning, and chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo for a minimum of, let’s say, ten minutes daily to start with, any of us can experience actual proof of its positive effects in our lives - even if it only makes us feel good on the inside, there will be a definite positive effect. That’s because we’re able to pierce through the thickest layers of our karma and activate our inherent Buddha Nature (our enlightened state). By so doing, we’re then able to bring forth the wisdom and good fortune that we need to challenge, overcome and change our adverse circumstances - turn them into positive ones - or manifest and gain even greater fulfilment in our daily lives from our accumulated good karma. This also allows us to bring forth the wisdom that can free us from the ignorance and stupidity that’s preventing us from accepting and being proud of the person that we indeed are - regardless of our race, colour, gender or sexuality. We’re also able to see and understand our circumstances and the environment far more clearly, as well as attract and connect with any needed external beneficial forces and situations. As I’ve already mentioned, everything is subject to the law of Cause and Effect - the ‘actual-proof-strength’ resulting from chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo always depends on our determination, sincerity and dedication. For example, the levels of difference could be compared to making a sound on a piano, creating a melody, producing a great song, and so on. Something else that’s very important to always respect and acknowledge is that the Law (or if you prefer God) is in everyone and everything. NB: There are frightening and disturbing sounds, and there are tranquil and relaxing sounds. It’s the emotional result of any noise or sound that can trigger off a mood or even instantly change one. When chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day, we are producing a sound vibration that’s the password to our true inner-self - this soon becomes apparent when you start reassessing your views on various things - such as your fears and desires etc. The best way to get the desired result when chanting is not to view things conventionally - rather than reaching out to an external source, we need to reach into our own lives and bring our needs and desires to fruition from within - including the good fortune and strength to achieve any help that we may need. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo also reaches out externally and draws us towards, or draws towards us, what we need to make us happy from our environment. For example, it helps us to be in the right place at the right time - to make better choices and decisions and so forth. We need to think of it as a seed within us that we’re watering and bringing sunshine to for it to grow, blossom and bring forth fruit or flowers. It’s also important to understand that everything we need in life, including the answer to every question and the potential to achieve every dream, already exists within us.

@@mike-Occslong this argument has a major understated premise. That being that the parameters of “fine tuning” are capable of being different.

*An Overview of the Fine tuning argument* For many, the regularity of the universe and the precision with which the universe exploded into being provides even more evidences for the existence of God. This evidence technically known as the Teleological argument, derives its name from the Greek word telos, which means "design." The Teleological argument goes like this: 1. Every design has a designer 2. The universe has high- complex design 3. Therefore, the universe has a designer *The Anthropic Principle* Scientists are finding the universe is like that watch ( anology of William Paley ), except even more precisely designed. These highly-precise and interdependent environmental conditions (called "anthropic constants") make up what is known as the "Anthropic Principle"-- a title for the mounting evidence that has many scientists believing the universe is extremely fine tuned (designed) to support human *_CONSCIOUSNESS_* on earth (Thats why some notorious atheists including Antony Flew later believed in God). Some Anthropic constants example include: _birth date of the star-planetary system_ _if too early: quantity of heavy elements would be too low for large rocky planets to form_ _if too late: star would not yet have reached stable burning phase; ratios of potassium-40, uranium-235, -238, and thorium-232 to iron would be too low for long-lived plate tectonics to be sustained on a rocky planet_ _flux of cosmic-ray protons (one way cloud droplets are seeded)_ _if too small: inadequate cloud formation in planet’s troposphere_ _if too large: too much cloud formation in planet’s troposphere_ _rotation period_ _if longer: diurnal temperature differences would be too great_ _if shorter: atmospheric jet streams would become too laminar and average wind speeds would increase too much_ _fine structure constant (a number, 0.0073, used to describe the fine structure splitting of spectral lines)_ _if larger: DNA would be unable to function; no stars more than 0.7 solar masses_ _if larger than 0.06: matter would be unstable in large magnetic fields _ _if smaller: DNA would be unable to function; no stars less than 1.8 solar masses_ _oxygen to nitrogen ratio in atmosphere_ _if larger: advanced life functions would proceed too quickly_ _if smaller: advanced life functions would proceed too slowly_ _Jupiter’s mass_ _if greater: Earth’s orbit would become unstable; Jupiter’s presence would too radically disturb or prevent the formation of Earth_ _if less: too many asteroid and comet collisions would occur on Earth_ For more evidence: reasons.org/explore/blogs/tag/fine-tuning/page/2 reasons.org/explore/publications/articles/rtb-design-compendium-2009 *What are the chances?* It's not there just a few broadly defined constants that may have resulted by chance. There are more than 100 very narrowly defined constants that strongly point to an Intelligent Designer. Astrophysicist, Hugh Ross, calculated the probability these and other constants would exist for any planet in the universe by chance (i.e, without divine design). To meet all conditions, there is 1 chance in 10^1038 (one chance in one with 1038 zeroes after it)-- essentially 0% chance. According to probability theory, odds of less than 1 in 10^50 equals " zero probability" . Check:reasons.org/explore/publications/articles/probability-for-life-on-earth It only proves that atheism is just a dogmatic belief. Nearly 2000 years ago, the apostle St Paul wrote in his letter to the Romans, *_" For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse"_* _Important: The term “entropy” describes degree of thermodynamic “disorder” in a closed system like the universe. “Maximum entropy” would describe the “heat death” of the universe (which is the state it is slowly gravitating towards). Amazingly, our universe was at its “minimum entropy” at the very beginning, which begs the question “how did it get so orderly?” Looking just at the initial entropy conditions, what is the likelihood of a universe supportive of life coming into existence by coincidence? One in billions of billions? Or trillions of trillions of trillions? Or more?_ _Sir Roger Penrose, 2020 Nobel prize winner and a close friend of Stephen Hawking, wondered about this question and tried to calculate the probability of the initial entropy conditions of the Big Bang_ _According to Penrose, the odds against such an occurrence were on the order of 10 to the power of 10^123 to 1_ _It is hard even to imagine what this number means. In math, the value 10^123 means 1 followed by 123 zeros. (This is, by the way, more than the total number of atoms [10^79] believed to exist in the whole universe.) But Penrose's answer is vastly more than this: It requires 1 followed by 10^10^123 zeros_ _It’s important to recognize that we're not talking about a single unlikely event here. We’re talking about hitting the jackpot over and over again, nailing extremely unlikely, mutually complementary parameters of constants and quantities, far past the point where chance could account for it_

I think perhaps people are trying to read more into it than there possibly is. It seems whatever answer they may come up with or discover may never be enough because we will always then question why that answer is the way it is.

In their theory yes. If you accept the theory.

This is my argument to fine tuning. If we had a different universe, like, let's say we evolved with silicon instead of carbon; so a drastic world indeed. And the cosmological constants vastly different but good for life. We would more than likely say those are fine tuned aswell. So, my pondering is that the universe isn't fine tuned at all. Isn't it just how it is? We could easily say that many other universes that would be capable of supporting life be fine tuned. Know what I mean? It just so happens that we have those cosmic constants and not ones slightly or vastly different. Either way, we'd most definitely would say that any universe that we would happen to live in be fine tuned. But is the universe really ever fine tuned? In my view, I don't think it is. How can it be. Outside of earth, the universe is extremely violent and uninhabitable. The only place we know as of now where life is safe is earth, everywhere else is just chaotic. But even on earth it is a struggle. In the past, out ancestors weren't living per say but rather just surviving in extremely harsh conditions. I find it quite odd that a lot of people think that the universe is fine tuned. But of course, I'm up for a change of mind if there is a good rebuttal. I must say that the Anthrophic Principle is extremely strange. It does seem improbable that we have been born into this chaotic universe by against high odds, almost miracle esque. This channel is awesome it inspired me to make my KZread channel, to ponder.

Still many problems with our understanding and applications of quantum mechanics. The multiverse seems weak . . . Answers might be found as we learn more about dark matter, dark energy and black holes . . . Still in the dark ages . So greatful that you share this journey with us all .

Can we apprehend causation without intention? In other words is it necessary to be an intending lifeform before causation can be postulated? Not just an "understanding" being or an "evolutionary" lifeform: an avoider or a fighter; but a capitalizing being - one who uses understanding to benefit his evolutionary fight? The fight for survival provides the impetus to turn the observer into a predictor. To turn the understander into an intender. Whether intention creates a new memory or is the source of memory itself is to be argued. For if the memory of the understander is the same as that of the predictor, then what cognitive function must be postulated to differentiate the understanding being from the capitalizing being?

Interesting debates. There is another fin tuning problem: Why are all the Earth's parameters right for higher life to be possible? Distance from the sun, magnetic field, atmosphere, planetary tectonics, a big moon and more fit exactly. Since we know that almost all stars have planetary systems, it is clear that in the huge number of planets, some must have the right preconditions. Similarly, a multiverse also fits the fin tuning of our universe. Postulating a God for this is pointless, because then the question would have to be answered as to who created the preconditions for a God to exist. This does not bring us one step closer to the truth.

You’re right but with this difference and I assume you already know this and it’s in this episode anyway. Just the cosmological constant alone is tuned to 10 to the 123. There are only as a comparison, 10 to the 86 atoms in the entire observable universe. It’s mind blowing compared to why you pointed out, which in itself is mind blowing. To your point, I believe this is why the Drake equation is worthless. Few laypersons understand that the far majority of even habitable planets would have one side facing their sun 100% of the time. And so it goes, plate tectonics, iron core resulting in a magnetic field that keeps the sun’s cosmic rays from blowing the atmosphere away, such as it did in Mar’s history, on and on.

*Robin Collins’ Surprise Principal* Starting about 19:00, Collins provides a bad analogy. The laws of physics don’t spell an explicit message to a specific person in a specific language. It is an absurd analogy in that we *skeptics* would be saying that rocks arranged to spell such a long specific message would indicate that his brother probably arranged them. The *theists* would be saying, “God did it.” Collins and Kuhn ignore that if the vague combination of laws of physics requires a creator, then all the more would that creator with muuuuch narrower parameters require a creator, and an infinite regression of ever-greater creators. Collins also assumes that we would not be surprised by a creator creating a vague set of laws that would eventually lead to life billions of years in the future. That scenario fails Collins’ own Surprise Principal in two ways: 1. if life is a goal, we should expect it to be created immediately 2. If the creator is omnipotent, it already has a perfect universe in itself. I would not expect it to create anything.

it leads me to my favorite question- why is there something instead of nothing?

Imagining other such universes, will they will be fine tuned for any intelligent life that happens to evolve there? If in one of these alternative universes life arises but does not reach the level of intelligence, is that universe biothropic?

He says that we would be far less likely to expect to see an earthquake cause the rocks' formation to spell out his brother's name. Yet, his counterargument is far more unexpected: an unseen, unproven (or unprovable) benign being outside of our laws of physics being responsible for this message.

I think the universe is like a building which from the beginning was ''planned'' by an ''architect'' that is why it only could end up as it ended up. The main mystery here is to me what ''planned'' and ''architect'' actually is since we deal here with (super) natural world phenomena.

To answer the fine tuning of the universe by claiming God did it just pushes the problem back one more level. You then must account for God‘s existence. Of course, theists avoid this by claiming God is eternal, but why can‘t we use this same solution for the universe itself, namely that the universe together with all its fine tuning is eternal? Of course, in that case the universe would have to be cyclic in nature as in Penrose‘s CCC -Conformal Cyclic Cosmology- proposal.

What else would it be after a few billion years

How might God and meaning manifest in quantum fields?

Good day. The universe is not fine tuned, it is exactly the contrary, life is exactly adapted to the universe constants.

Fine-tuned for black holes maybe

Oh wow haha your ignorance is laughable. Yes it IS fine tuned. Whether this fine tuning is best explained by god or by chance is another question.

That does make the problem significantly less complicated. But to some extent the Universe must sit between certain parameters in order for any kind of life to exist. The anthropomorphic principle sets pretty strict parameters for human life, but even if we're imagining some kind of exotic silicone based lifeform the Universe would still have to satisfy particular boundary conditions. If the constants of nature were changed too dramatically then liquid matter could not exist. No amount of adaptation could ever lead to human life in a Universe that contianed no liquid.

@@acetate909 Exactly, I have no clue why this is so difficult for people to understand and accept. Perhaps it is a typical philosophical commitment to methodological naturalism.

Trying to explain everything being so perfect for life with God breaks down the same way atheists come to the conclusion that the universe just is. If you try and ask someone who created God or how did God come to be in the first place? They say he just is. I think the truth is something way more complicated than anyone will ever come to understand.

I love that science is finally realizing God is real

Why "fine tuned" for misery and death? No clue.
