I actually don't see any good argument for a god at all. Any argument is all on the same par for me, due to the unprovable aspect of the conclusion of the argument: "God exists"
The only reasoning that people can use to justify a belief in god, is essentially that they WANT to believe in god.
The 'Don't you feel it in your heart?' argument is my favourite though, simply because it smacks of absolute logical insignificance. So what if you can feel 'something in your heart?'. It's not reason to believe in god unless you willfully want to accept it as such, which is choosing your own bloody reasoning to suit your own bloody preference.
An argument without evidence must at least rely on some reasoning, and the only reasoning you can find for believing in a god is that you want to. Whether the arguer consciously accepts that or not.
