Abstract

Abstract It is shown that cosmology destroys the fundamental on which it lies as a natural‐scientific discipline if it introduces subjectivistic principles as one of them is the so‐called Anthropic Principle that superseds the Copernican turn of sciences. Likewise conceptions are proved as conceptions that contradict the physical cosmology which conceive that the “World harmony” or the physical‐uniform grasping of the world can be derived from numbers or relations of numbers. This is due to the fact that these conceptions liquadate the advantage of physics to get via measurements statements about reality.
