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

[ignoramus]

Of course another explanation wouid be that life couldve formed(achieved its stable state) elsewhere,ie,other than earth and then somehow reached earth.. And after reaching earth was then subject to evolution ..and got to what it is today..

Pooly, As Hanky said, why does it need to come from elsewhere? Plenty of shit going on in our own primordial pool.
Maybe it did? Maybe conditions to trigger chemistry to biology were better elsewhere ...it's all conjecture.

Pool: Sure, at an abstract level that is true. I meant at a more fundamental, microscopic level. If the conditions are right for something to happen, in accordance with whatever rules apply, then it happens. It's a tautology, I'm not trying to say anything profound!

As an overall pattern, life generally "tries to survive", I agree. This is an emergent property of all these rules interacting at the fundamental level.

Good point Rob. My question is of course: Why does low level unintelligent life try to survive? Why does its dna tell it to survive at any cost?

Since when did life become precious? Philosophical question maybe, but interesting none the less.
Happy to listen to opinions which don't involve IR (infinite regress).
