  • Gavin Ortlund introduces the fine-tuning argument for the existence of God and responds to 5 common objections. While this presentation does not present the thoughts specifically of LDS Theologians, it does show the respect the LDS thinkers have towards the reality of the miracle of the Universe. We do believe that God uses the rules and laws of nature to create and maintain order at certain levels. The members of the LDS church look forward to any and all truths revealed through any source. We believe God is behind all sources of truth.
