If those ways don't tell us how to do one very specific thing - then they're not what they say they are on the tin, huh?
They failed to show us how to do that one specific thing, because they are invalid.
Soooooo....yeah, why should we trust them? Because they're written on a cave wall? Because other people (hilariously) do?
Can any cosmological argument address the mereological objection? Does a thing have to be true of the whole if it is true of one or all parts?

Can you point me to one contemporary case in which it was asserted that all the assumptions are faulty?
I'm curious where you're getting your information, since every bit of it seems to misunderstand the issues.
