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

The universe itself gives no evidence of design.  Especially if it is humanocentric.  The earth is a tiny dot in a galaxy that itself is a fraction of a dot in a massively enormous universe.  All that wasted space.
The appearance of design can't be the result of evolution because of the hundreds of proteins along with a large genetic code that is required to enter the evolutionary pathway. 

Also the universe does give evidence of design. Every single thing that led to us is unlikely. The cosmological constant, and other finely tuned laws  of physics and chemistry. The features of our planet and solar system that allow life to form. It is all exactly the way it needs to be.
