Overall, The beauty of the sunset and nature in general leads to god for intellectually honest people. Asking for ((((evidence)))) when you have all this, around you, is just bloody silly.
Beauty has NOTHING to do with design or fine tuning. Beauty is a human response to certain sensory inputs and patterns. It is in the eye of the beholder, and not something objective.
Is the existence of love, pleasure, pain evidence of design? No, they are responses that humans have evolved to experience.
Evolution says that the world wasn't designed for us, but rather we evolved to be a part of the world.
I believe that a firm grasp of science is the most instructive element to a religious understanding. Read a book on evolution sometime. I highly recommend Richard Dawkins' "The Greatest Show on Earth".
