I'm surprised no one talks about the kolmogorov complexity.

You wonder how we can estimate the Shannon entropy of the cosmological constants without a probability distribution? Yes, we cannot.

The way to infer the "entropy" of something without a probability distribution is to use the kolmogorov complexity from algorithmic information theory.

The kolmogorov complexity will give you a number of bits that represents the universal and minimal complexity of an object by using universal turing machine theory.

If you then considers each of those bits has a probably of 50%, you basically get what you could call an universal entropy.

With it, you can estimate the "entropy" of the cosmological constants to be between 500 and 1000 bits.

You can also trivially prove that the "entropy" of any God capable of figuring out the cosmological constants is necessarily higher than the "entropy" of the cosmological constants themselves.

Using this "entropy" to estimate a probably is called the Solomonoff Induction.

So possible fine tuning argument for atheism?

Source for this apparently is a journal article. The full article is locked behind a paywall, but this is the abstract:

“Temporal analyses were completed between the occurrence of intense displays of exotic luminous phenomena over a church in Zeitoun (Egypt) during the years 1968 through 1969 and regional seismicity. These phenomena, viewed by thousands of onlookers, began one year before an unprecedented increase (factor of 10) in seismic activity about 400 km to the southeast. Monthly analyses also demonstrated a moderate (0.56) correlation between increases in seismicity and the occurrence of luminous phenomena during the same or previous month. These results were interpreted as further support for the hypothesis that most anomalous (terrain-related) luminous phenomena are generated by factors associated with tectonic strain.”

Seems like this might explain the persistent nature of the light phenomena.
