Scientists have discovered that there are numerous finely-tuned constants and quantities observed in the universe that have to be just right for there to be any life at all. The chances of all of these fine-tuned constants being just right to allow for life on Earth have been calculated to 1 in 10^138. There appear to be only three possible explanations: (1) Necessity, (2) Chance, and (3) Design. Design seems to be, by far, the most reasonable explanation…
