This sounds like the anthropic argument for a designer. How does this
naturalistic response that "things just couldn't have been otherwise" differ
from the anthropic arguemtn?

"Philosophers consistently see the method of science before their eyes,
and are irresistibly tempted to ask and answer questions in the way science
does. This tendency...leads the philosopher into complete darkness."
Ludwig Wittgestein, The Blue Book, 1933
