Linking string theory, the cosmological constant, the anthropic principle, the multiverse, and the plausibility for an intelligent design creationist conclusion to explain the conditions that support intelligent life.

  1. I commented on this as “Guest”… which was an unintentional screw-up, since most of the responding physicists know exactly who I am from the jist of my point:

    Lenny thinks that “the appearance of design is undeniable”… but he’s confident that he can deny this implied significance in the alleged “multiverse”.

    So what happens to that significance without a multiverse to lose it in?

    Notice that Lenny is confident that they can still manage to find a way to rationalize their way around that.

    Pathetic non-scientific losers… to be nice about it… *sweet smile*
