In the article, Dr. Siegel maintains that because the universe was not "born ready for life" at the moment of the "big bang", everything that came after the "big bang" and effectuated life was therefore the result of "luck".
Yet, Dr. Siegel's explication unequivocally demonstrates that the universe was born ready to induce life. Indeed, Dr. Siegel's article does an excellent job laying out the case for the teleological, life-inducing expansion of the universe, from the moment of (what he calls) the "lucky" "bang" up the present. Nevertheless, Dr. Siegel writes off the entire life-engendering process of cosmic evolution as a product of "luck" that started with the "bang".
Why would Dr. Siegel engage in such obvious, transparent illogic? Because Dr. Siegel, a Ph.D. and astrophysicist - aka "a Science Communicator" - has an Agenda. You see, a "lucky" "bang" possesses no inherent meaning or purpose. It's a random, unguided event, and whatever it spawns is by definition the product of indifference.
A universe that was born ready to induce life would give meaning and purpose to the cattle, because that sort of universe implies a beneficent Creator. Meaning and purpose are good things. They are crucial to human well-being. But they are reserved for a very select, chosen group of people. The cattle can never be allowed to have meaning or purpose, because meaning and purpose can lead to hope - and if the cattle acquire hope, it can be dangerous a very select, chosen group of people.
The cattle must be denied meaning, purpose, and hope. The cattle are fit only for exploitation and slaughter. And Dr. Siegel's argument regarding a "lucky" "bang" does the trick. It pens the cattle into a miserable, meaningless existence, where they can be exploited and slaughtered without ever even understanding what is going on around them.
A very select, chosen group of people can never allow the cattle to think they have a beneficent Creator; the cattle must at all times be deprived of meaning, purpose, and hope.
