Multiverse

On the Sunday programme on Radio 4 this morning Professor Bernard Carr argued that some people would say that "the theory of a multiverse is the last refuge of desperate atheists".

Our universe appears to be fine-tuned for (human) life, which implies a creator.

But if you imagine a huge number of universes, you can explain this universe by blind chance and so you don't need God.

Desperate indeed. In our universe there appears to be a God. In other universes, a God may not be necessary. Mmmm.
