The Watchmaker: my fav argument

[Mister Agenda]

In which case, we always take the easiest.

It doesn't get much easier than "God did it." It consolidates all of nature's problems into a single locus. (Not that nature actually cares what your brain finds easy or convinient anyway.)

It would be more accurate to say that in science we go for the simplest (without any elements not required) explanation that accounts for all the observations. Saying God did it is functionally equivalent to saying 'magic did it' and doesn't actually explain anything.
