That's merely adding another layer of assertion. It's rather like a lawyer standing up in court and saying "As for evidence that the accused is guilty, well somebody did it."

Given Chad's particular brand of christianity, it's actually worse than that: it's as if that lawyer merely fabricated this attribute, "necessary criminality," which only the accused possesses, and asserts that since the accused is necessarily the criminal, his work is done.

Because just saying that somebody committed the crime might actually have some basis in fact given the evidence of the case; we have no evidence that the universe even requires a creator, and yet Chad is attempting to point to a very specific, christian creator, using imaginary attributes. So a truly accurate comparison would be a lawyer accusing someone he already dislikes of a crime nobody can yet ascertain has happened, on the weight of the accused having "necessary criminality."

It's just making shit up, to support more made up shit.
