What's the lamest defence of Theism you've ever heard?

They know that's an issue, AAA, and that's why most of the research at the moment seems to point to rock micropores as an "assist" to the process that would normally be difficult or impossible in a free solution.

Regardless, your arguments are still  nothing more than "God of the Gaps" arguments, especially since you're relying on outright lies about information theory upon which to base your argument.

Educate yourself.
It's not that I put God where we don't understand, it is that I see what we do understand, and believe it was designed based on how it operates. If I remember, you are a retired biologist? Please tell me honestly whether or not you ever wondered if it was designed when you learned about the inner workings of the cell. The way that genes are regulated is just so impressive. I read like 4 articles on histone modification a few days ago, and it is just mind blowing. Also, almost all biomolecules are capable of bearing information based on the sequence they are put in. DNA, Proteins, and Carbohydrates.
What do you mean "we?"

You must first prove the existence of god before you can claim that he did anything. But I see it's to your advantage to put the cart before the horse.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.
