To explain why the basic physical constants happen to be in the precise narrow range of what is required for life, some suggest that there is a huge (or even infinite) number of parallel universes, each with different values for the basic physical constants, and that we are in one of the unusual universes that has produced life. Thus random factors explain the apparent order and design in the universe.

Glynn emphasizes that these alternative parallel universes are unobservable and have no scientific evidence in their favor; so the idea is not part of science. Instead, it's science fiction nonsense -- and a desperate attempt to avoid the conclusion that there's a mind directing nature.
