The Seal Of God In Creation And The Word
This was a literature by F. C. Payne, I guess published in 1995. Apologetics often draw inspiration from this writing to support their side of the argument.
http://www.mun.ca/rels/restmov/texts/efinck/GODSEAL.HTM

I have gone through the first few pages of this article and until now, the author has just used the god-of-the-gaps fallacy to explain the "currently unexplainable" phenomena in nature while sparingly putting in a few circular arguments.

Have you guys read this piece? What are your thoughts.

Its a metric arseload of bullcrap.

I got as far as his challenge to evolutionists;

Why is it that, although the Jews have circumcised their male children without break for approximately 4,000 years, it has not had the slightest effect on their offspring?

My ten year old knows the answer to that. Whats Fincks excuse?

Clearly cherry picked science in places with no understanding or attempt to. I saw no reason to waste any more time on it.

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
The f**king janitor or the dude who runs the waterslide. Throughout history every mystery. Ever solved has turned out to be. Not Magic.
