On the face of it, I would have to disagree. It would seem to me that's exactly what the universe selected for, among many other things of course, in our tiny little corner of it.
Otherwise, we wouldn't be here debating it.

- kmiroslav 10y agoMaybe this universe did select for intelligence. How about all the other universes that never generated intelligence? But going back to our own universe, how widespread is intelligence? It's pretty much microscopic, isn't it? I think our universe seems to be mostly geared toward generating empty space, and the rare areas that are not empty are certainly extremely hostile to intelligence.
