3D printing can also be done with molten metals and evolving in
printer size and materials used.

Yes your IQ needs quadrupling?

Petzl 
What perfect set of circumstances placed our Sun a
Celestial ball of fire at just the correct distance
 from our little blue planet for life to evolve? 
All simply conicidence? 
The very fact we exist is nothing but the result of a 
complex yet inevitable string of chemical accidents 
and biological mutations? 
There is no Grand meaning? There is no purpose? 

If gravity was slightly more powerful 
the universe would collapse into a bowl!
If gravity was less powerful the universe would fly apart, 
there would be no stars no planets!

Gravity is precisely as strong as it needs to be!
If the ratio of the electromagnetic force to the 
strong force wasn't 1% life wouldn't exist!
