Omschrijving:The fine-tuning argument suggests that the universe is the work of an intelligence, commonly identified as God, not committed to proving all of its attributes. This article analyzes its role in theism, deism, and atheism, focusing on two key versions: the intelligent design argument and the cosmological constants (fine-tuning) argument. This argument represented for Rowe a kind of counterbalance in the evaluation of the evidence of evil, so that it is questioned whether these arguments can validly sustain the existence of a creative intelligence. Its historical origins are traced, the arguments for and against each are examined, and a logical and probabilistic analysis is applied. Throughout the examination, the invalidity of both versions is demonstrated through this analysis. Finally, an atheistic alternative based on the evidence of evil is presented as a positive reason for rejecting theistic and deistic explanations.
