I'm reading Hawking's Universe in a Nutshell and he mentions that our universe is fortuitously suited for the emergence of life. For instance, he finds it unlikely that life could evolve in a universe with fewer than or more than 3 spatial dimensions (that's 3 relatively flat dimensions, not curled-up, for you string theorists).
I've never seen facts like this as evidence of intelligent design. I've always felt that fact that we're here to observe the universe trumps the unlikelihood that a given universe will support us, but I've never been able to flesh out that hunch in a satisfactory way. Any help?
