"If you discovered a really impressive fine-tuning ... I think you'd really be left with only two explanations: a benevolent designer or a multiverse."

Well of course you would Soliton! But note well: Neither the benevolent designer nor the multiverse is an observable datum, and thus neither is susceptible to test and falsification by means of the scientific method. Steven Weinberg is "philosophizing" here; and so are you!

Indeed. Thank you so much for sharing your insights, dearest sister in Christ!

You guys (generic guy) are so eloquent. Thanks.
I am more the sarcastic type.

Neither the benevolent designer nor the multiverse is an observable datum

Certtain aspects of the observable universe suggest that large objects are being affected by gravitaional effects outside our universe. Maybe we will have to redifine universe.

It seems that there is also substantially more evidence for the benevolent creator than the multiverse.

The multiverse has merely some suspected aberrations in gravitational forces suggesting gravitational effects from outside the universe.

God has left a written record, miracles occur, human hearts are changed instantly upon establishing a personal relationship with the Designer.
