Creatio Ex Nihilo - Forming Something out of Nothing?

That's basically the core of all christian apologetics: "God is the thing that does the thing that I've asserted is impossible for what you believe to account for."

They don't have any actual evidence, and so they're stuck with trying to streamline reality by fiat in such a way that you're channeled toward a god that has no evidence. It's just pretending reality is shaped in a way that has a conveniently god shaped hole in it.
