Exactly. God could have created humans so we can live in empty space, he could have created other creatures that do.

Universe seems to be fine tuned for empty space and black holes to me. It seems to favor nothingness.

>Also, isn't it possible that there is more than one universe and that we just happen to be in one where life is possible, since we could only happen in one of those? Wouldn't seem very fine-tuned in that case, would it?

This is the cosmological multiverse theory.
