If there was no life, you wouldn’t know it.

I live in a deep forest and can't get tv reliably. But this looks like a line from the Simpsons' (not OJ) that yields an inevitiable, "Duh!."

Well, when you think about it, the anthropic principle itself is, “duh.” It shouldn’t even be necessary to come up with it, but there you go. The alternative, that man is the be all and the center of the universe, is too arrogant. Copernicus should have disabused us of that.
