 One line of criticism appeals to so-called “anthropic” considerations. The idea is that some findings are a consequence of our nature as observers, and thus reflect something about us rather than the phenomena under discussion. For example, I might notice that whenever I observe a physical object, the observation happens while I am awake. But I shouldn’t conclude from this that physical objects only exist when I am awake. This feature of my observations just reflects something about me: I have to be awake to make these observations. Likewise, these critics argue, we can only observe a cosmos that has the features necessary to support (intelligent) life. So our discovery that our universe is fine-tuned only reflects a limitation in us, that we could not observe the opposite (McMullin 1993; Sober 2005).
