Abstract

The article proves the conclusion that the anthropic principle does not arise from an analysis of processes taking place in nature and that is why it cannot explain the specific character of our Universe by itself. Moreover, in the context of the idea that there exists a multitude of universes it becomes “empty”, for each universe, including our one, is so what it is because of natural processes which form it, but not as a result of the anthropic principle effect.
