Why is this even a news article?
Scientists openly admit that they can't yet explain everything about the origin of our universe. This does not in any way suggest that a god is behind it, nor does it suggest that the universe is fine-tuned. Maybe there is only one way for a universe to be. It's also very possible that had the universe been set up with different laws and constants, different life would have evolved.
When those who claim that the universe is too fine-tuned to have come about by itself actually demonstrate that the universe is fined-tuned, maybe then I'll take this argument seriously.
