For example, scripture introduces God as the entity that made all things, and life in particular. Therefore, the planet itself and every living cell on it is evidence consistent with the thesis. To use your template: God ---> Life on Earth. And we observe life on Earth.
I am living, so according to you God created me. However, I know for a fact that my parents created me. As an explanation for my being alive, my parents are sufficient.
The same or something similar is true for all of life.
How do you propose to demonstrate that God is necessary? It seems to me that you need to explain that to maintain that life is evidence for God.
The argument is demonstrably fallacious.
