Teleological Argument:

• Every design has a designer
• Universe has a highly conplex design
• Universe had a designer

Imagine finding a Rolex watch on the ground, would you first conclude the cause of the watch was from the wind and the rain? No, you would concluded so intelligent being made the watch

Via the Anthropic Principle, the universe and earth are highly fine-tuned to support human life: 

1. Oxygen Level

• Oxygen level on the earth is 21%
• If oxygen was 25%, fires would erupt spontaneously
• If oxygen was 15%, humans would suffocate

2. Atomospheric Transparency

• If the atomsphere was less transparent, not enough soloar radiation would reach the earth's surface
• If the atomsphere was more transparent. we would recieve too much solar radiation

 

Key Phrase: The creator created highly fine-tuned a universe and earth to support human life
