Is the universe so finely tuned ?
Published on July 19th, 2021

In one of the essays on the internet I came across the title above, and managed to struggle through it, as it had various quotes from Steven Hawkings and Carl Sagan to Einstein and Feynman. Struggled because the thoughts were so esoteric, that following the thread was difficult even though the author had tried to ‘dumb down’ the article. In essence it was a collection of reasons of how the universe itself was not a random series of events, but was a carefully structured series of events. In some cases the constant was c= 10150 An unbelievable number, had it varied by 5 percent the galaxies could not have formed and there would have been no universe.


This does indeed prove the existence of a method employed by a supreme overseer to have created the universe, and life as we know it. The article went on to examine how cosmic events had wiped out the dinosaurs, and how mankind itself was saved from near suicide by the two nuclear super powers that had the ability to destroy life on this planet many times over. As luck would have it a puny Afghanistan singlehandedly caused the mighty Soviet empire to collapse on itself.


The Afghans had no weapons, but their faith in Allah proved the winning ingredient. Now the US has after a 20 year battle against the same Afghans had to sign a humiliating truce with the victorious Afghans. A truly remarkable feat, giving a more definitive prevalence of faith over technology. The action in the region moved closer to Pakistan when the US was badly stung by its defeat and insists on maintaining its posture as the neighbourhood bully and wants to continue attacking Afghanistan from a safer distance. They were badly mauled earlier forcing them to sign that humiliating truce. They would like to continue the war but from a position of safety. As Imran has refused them the military bases they are trying other strategies. The first being to punish Imran for his impertinent “Absolutely Not.” The dash by young Bilawal to the US to offer himself as an alternate more pliable to US policy is a tempting alternative for the Pentagon that is used to having foreign rulers do their bidding. This time Bilawal may have made a serious miscalculation, for he is ignoring the Russian Bear and Chinese Panda in the ring.


Bilawal is showing a lack of the political skill that kept his father alive. The acquiescence of the Bin Laden episode is not forgotten, as highlighted in the Obama book which makes for shameful reading. Bilawal’s airdash to the US is not a mistake. When the world watched while someone who has long gathered much sympathy and many voted for sacrifices made by his maternal ancestors, this could be seen as petulant opportunism. A phrase that may haunt Bilawal in the years to come.


As explained at the beginning of this article our universe is not unplanned. It is following a well defined path with consequences where the greed of the Zardaris and the Sharifs became excessive then circumstances created conditions for their downfall. This explains the appearance of the Khan. Just as Pakistanis were getting used to their slavery to corruption, Imran Khan appeared. The timing is well nigh perfect and seems ordained! The role that he is stepping into is larger than we can imagine, but it is a role demanded by the circumstances. This could be the game changer for Pakistan. With the right team around him,he should discard these phony political parasites and start afresh with youngsters, none older than 25. As those older have already been corrupted. Youth has energy and idealism. Both are essential to the Imran Model for success but the corrupt system must go.
