Abstract:

This article is devoted to the philosophical foundations of different explanations of the facts known from the latest scientific achievements of cosmogony and cosmology. It is shown, that some of the expla-nations on the matter under observation tacitly rehabilitate the idea of anthropocentrism finding int roots in Ptolemaic theory. In this context, great attention is paid to critical analysis of the anthropic principle, which is a version of current teleology. It is assumed that the above-mentioned principle is based on the inadequate interpretation of the hypothesis of the Big Bang. Thereat anthropic principle is determined on one side by Aristotle theory of telos and on the other side by religious and mystical ideas of creation of the World and Mankind. In contrast, the many-worlds interpretation or the Everett interpretation equates the conceptual and the objective reality going to the other extreme on this ground and postulating almost infi-nite plurality of alternate Universes.This article highlights the issues specific to philosophical and methodological foundations of delu-sions and criteria of knowing the truth in cosmogony and cosmology.
