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

While Rocket may have left the the evidence and moved on to speculation (though I don't completely agree with that idea) you have yet to give any evidence that leads to a creator nor have you provided your methodology. How can we test your findings without these things?!?
 I just posted it. Also you can't test it any better than you can test any other abiogenesis theory. Lets say that we mixed some chemicals in high pressure systems and got 20 amino acids linked together. Would this then be the accepted answer to abiogenesis? All we have done is demonstrated that it CAN happen. Now lets say that I go and introduce one amino acid to a solution at a time and add heat until they bonded. I form a purposeful sequence. Would intelligent design then be accepted? We have again demonstrated only that it CAN happen, we will never be able to say for sure which one DID happen. That's why the empiricism that you crave cannot be applied to the origin of life, no matter how much we both wish it could.
