A more sophisticated version of the argument from design still exists, though: the argument from fine-tuning. This argument concerns the physical laws of our universe—laws concerning gravity, quantum mechanics, and so on. If those laws had been just a little different, then our universe would have been much less interesting and life would never have evolved. By some reasonable measures, most ways of setting up the physical laws of a universe wouldn’t lead to life, but the laws in our universe did. So this universe seems to be fine-tuned for life.
