As AronRa points out, if you're proclaiming as true that which is not evidently true or which you cannot demonstrate is true, that is a lie, and depending on what you're lying about, that's fraud. The fact that ID was defeated spectacularly in court because those who were defending it were frauds is just a microcosm of the entire enterprise. Try pulling any of that other shit in an actual court, and they'll be convicted of fraud and rightly labeled as charlatans.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
