Consider next the All Worlds Hypothesis, in which every possible local world exists. First;y, conceive of our Universe as a local world.
The All Worlds Hypothesis covers every conceivable kind of world, and most of these other worlds would have very different elements and laws.
If all these worlds exist, we can ask why they do? We might then enquire, whatever the number
of possible worlds that exist, ‘Why that number?’
We might ask of the Many Worlds Hypothesis, ‘Why do just these worlds exist, with these
elements and laws?’ But, if all worlds exist, we cannot make this enquiry because in the All Worlds hypothesis all element and all laws exist.
So this precludes the theistic 'fine tuning' argument why is our world so fine tuned for life?
Darwin bemoaned the fact that 99% of all living creature since the beginning of known time had
been wiped out so 'our world' cannot be that fine tuned for life. Our world appears to have had
an ad hoc designer.
There is room a plenty in the wonder of our Universe that entices us into wonder and the
mystical
as Wittgenstein wrote, ‘not how the world is, is the mystical, but that it is.’
