You misunderstand me. Making the prediction ahead of time would be evidence that it was actually useful in making a prediction. Going back after something has been discovered to see if you can retrofit it into indicating prior knowledge is childish.
When it was discovered by Hubble that the universe was expanding. Did that evidence bolster or weaken General Relativity? It bolstered it, because although nobody predicted an expanding universe, they should have....because it was an implication of the theory.
The same is true here. It doesn't matter that nobody predicted the appearance of effects which do not have local causes....it is still an implication of an existent God.
