Good question Davies.
But one queston though, how do we know what is or is not meant to be for us, wheather has had, has, or is to be?

Mr. Davies- "What is not for us? Well, I can't really answer that without conditions. If something already belongs to another, well then I would think that means it is not for us. However, as our own history has shown, military prowess can change all of that."
Yes, but you have to keep in mind that it isn`t objects that adjust to beings, rather beings adjusts to objects.
Mr.Davies- "What I'm really getting at is the line of thought that points to the "fine tuning" of the universe to support our lifeforms. My point is with so much of the universe unavailable to us and or unable to be interacted with by us, how can we say that the universe is fine tuned?"
I agree, but why do I get the feeling that you think that all theists believe that the universe has been fine-tuned for them?
