Notice too that the WAP advocates focus on the wrong phenomenon of interest. They think that what needs to be explained (or explained away) is why we observe a universe consistent with our existence. It’s true that such an observation is not surprising. What needs explanation, though, is what caused the fine tuning of the universe in the first place—not our later observation of it. Thus, WAP advocates offer as a cause of the event that does need explanation a statement of a necessary condition of another event that does not need explanation.
