todas as constântes abaixo precisam estar sintonizadas de forma correta, para que vida se torne possível na terra. A chance de um universo surgir por acaso com todos estes parâmetros corretos, de forma que vida neste planeta se torne possível, é de um por um trilhão x um trilhão... precisa muita fé, para acreditar, que o acaso foi responsável para isto. O argumento que há trilhões de estrelas e planetas, aonde não há vida, não cabe, pois até mesmo para o universo poder se formar, a sintonia fina das forças atomicas, eletromagnéticas, e gravitacionais, também precisam estar em sintonia fina extrema. Por tanto , se aplica o mesmo problema ao BigBang, e ao próprio universo. Para que ele pudêsse se formar, há chance de um por trilhões x trilhões. E não sería também solucionado, quem acionou o processo do BigBang. Pois antes não havia nada. Parabéns, para quem tem tamanha fé para acreditar que o universo se auto-formou por chance. Este é o argumento mais poderoso para criação divina. O argumento " Deus das lacunas " não se aplica, pois temos em mãos todos os dados, a sciência já desvendou estes fatos. Racionalmente falando, não se sustenta a negação de Deus, diante estes fatos. Eles falam por si .
