There is no need for "need". You are arguing backwards from what we have, to an assumption that it was provided to fulfil a need.
Nor any of these other traits, which just happen to be absolutely necessary for anything to happen in this place.
No. If any of those factors were different, then we would have "evoleved", as it were, in a different way - or we might not have evolved at all.
As surely as an aircraft allows passengers to fly, if it was random it would simply not be there.
There are some threads around here somewhere about the evolution of wings. There are wings - e.g. chicken wings - which
don't allow flight. Apparently the wing evolved before the "need" for flight. It was something that "just happened" which was put to a use because it was already there.
Since the unvierse shows "workings" of a mind....
But that is entirely subjective.
Your analogy poses that the sky being blue is somehow necessary for my survival...."
Once again, the idea of "necessary for survival" is thinking backwards. Life survives because of what is already there. There is no predefined "need".
People who think they have all the answers usually don't understand the questions.
