Forgetting to blog part 3
Yes I promised the multiverse hypothesis. Yes I know when are you going to do it? Soon. It's just a lot of material I am undertaking at the moment. Okay to be honest. It has to do with a girl got it. I am preoccupied with a girl and trying to win her over. Okay! There I said it. When I find some time on my schedule I will blog about the multiverse hypothesis. Please forgive me for not doing anything for now.

Forgetting to blog part 2
I know I promised you guys to have a article on the multiverse hypothesis but a lot of things are going on in my social life that I must resolve before I get into the academia. I can't even study because of her. But I have said to much. My areas of study right now are God and abstract objects.

Girls, girls, girls!
Well today I decided to blog about my personal life today. So bear with me. Well I really like this girl she is amazing and awesome. She smart, funny, cute, just a great girl. So I asked her out and she said no. I been trying hard to win her over but I have failed. So I am moving on. This time I mean it. I feel like my feelings are starting to fade away. I still like her but my feelings are turning more like that of a friend. And praise God for that because I am tired of liking her. So there are two other girls. One is a Christian and the other is probably not. So anyway the Christian girl is cute and funny, smart, nice, shy and a devoted Christian. I don't like her she is just a friend the thing is I just want to ask her out. Get to know her etc. The other girl is not a Christian but she is a blond latina. In other words she is a ten out of ten (excuse me for being so vulgur) she is really, really, really, hot. She is also cute. She has that hot-cute look to her. She has a innocent face yet she has that hot girl look. But it is not just the looks she is also really nice and shy and fun and cool. She is one of those eco friendly types and is just awesome. But she is not a Christian. Well what am I to do. If you ask me I rather go with the non Christian. I am sorry but I know her better we are friends already. Plus she is really hot. But God help me.

The second premise
2. It is not due to chance or necessity.
Well to begin with what do we mean by fine tunning? Well the laws of nature are so precise so to speak to allow life to exist. What do we mean by life? Any organism that uses energy from food and can reproduce. So the laws of nature are so fine tunned to even allow the most simplest cell to exist. Well some of you might object saying okay but that means nothing. Well it does since there is only one universe and it is highly unlikely that the laws of nature would have been this way. It is more probable that the laws of nature would have been life prohibiting than permitting. Most scienctist agree that the universe doesn't have to be the way it is, it could have been different. So this fine tunning requires explanation.
Chance.
Some say well the laws just happen to be the right ones. Like the lottery it is highly inprobable you win it but someone got to win it. So the same with the universe. But this analogy fails because were are not asking why a universe exists. Of course some universe must exist. But we are asking why a fine tunned universe exists. So I agree some universe must exist but it is highly more likely that the universe be life prohibiting than permitting. Some respond by saying any universe is equally improbable. Well yes but it is more probable that the universe be life prohibiting than permitting. To give the proper analogy example, suppose we have 1 white ball thrown into a sea of black balls. And you have to blindfolded chose one. Any ball you grab is highly improbable. But you got to grab a ball but it is highly more probable that the ball you grab be a black ball than a white ball.
The anthropic principle.
Some people object by saying that we shouldn't be surprised at the fine tunning because if it weren't we wouldn't be here to observe it. Well this is a horrible objection. To give a analogy suppose you are put in front of a firing squad of 100 trained marksmen. The captain gives the orders READY, AIM, FIRE! You hear the roar of the guns and to your surprise you are still alive! And you say to yourself I shouldn't be surprised they missed because if they hadn't I wouldn't be here to observe it! Would you actually consider that answer for a minute. NO! You shouldn't be surprised that your not dead because your alive to observe it but you should be surprised that you alive. So the same applies with the principle.
The multiverse hypothesis.
The only way the principle can work if it were linked to a multiverse. Saying okay it is highly improbable that a fine tunned universe exists but there are many universe and some of them have to be fine tunned so we are just one of them. Well the multiverse hypothesis has nothing to be said in it favor. One of the main problems is that there has yet to be mentioned a mechanism to generate the many worlds. And the ones that have been proposed often themselves require fine tunning. So the problem get even worse. I will have more to say on the multiverse hypothesis tomorrow in a special article for it.

The teological argument.
Most of you know this argument and think probably it has been refuted by science and evolution. But think again I think science give us good clues to think the universe is designed. But for this article we are going to just list the argument in premises.
1. Either the fine tunning of the universe is due to necessity, chance or design.
2. It is not due to necessity or chance.
3. Therefore it is due to design.
Premise one presents us with three options which I think are the only ones around. So if there is another option one would have to include it in the first premise. But since I see no other alternatives than premise one is sound. I don't think anyone objects to premise one. Now the part they object is premise 2 but in our next article we will disucuss premise 2 of the argument.

Cashcrate.
This is where I get my money from. The link is on the right if you noticed. Now this website is great because you can get paid just by doing surveys, offers, and shopping! The surveys are quick and easy and they pay decent amount. They send you a check if you hit the 20 dollar mark. That is the mimnimum. Now if you make 100 dollars they send it to you on the 15th of the next month. I have personally recieved checks from them and they are real and valid. There is also a great refferel system where you can make even more money. For example if you sign up they give you a special refferel link just for you and if people click on that link and they sign up under that link you make 20% of what they make! And people who sign up under them you make 10% from them! SO imagine you refer 20 people and they refer another 20. Just imagine how much you can make! So click the link on the side and get started now if you do you can get two dollars free!
