摘要
The fine-tuning argument attempts to use data from contemporary physics as evidence for God’s existence. In particular, contemporary physics suggests that—in absence of any divine intervention—there was little chance that a universe like ours would come into existence. The chapter points out a theological problem with the fine-tuning argument: since God can choose the laws of nature, God can set the chances that a universe like ours would come into existence. It argues, however, that if God could be expected to create a nice universe, then God could also be expected to set favourable chances for a nice universe. Therefore, the fine-tuning argument defeats itself.

这种微调的论点试图利用当代物理学中的数据作为上帝存在的证据。特别地，当代物理学表明，在没有任何神灵干预的情况下，像我们这样的宇宙几乎不可能存在。本章指出了一个带有微调论据的神学问题：由于上帝可以选择自然法则，因此上帝可以设定像我们这样的宇宙存在的机会。但是，它认为，如果可以期望上帝创造一个美好的宇宙，那么也可以期望上帝为创造一个美好的宇宙创造有利的机会。因此，微调论据会失败。
