Alex, it is a silly argument whose broad outline you can read here:

And you can read it entire here:

The very short version is:
People can reason. Therefore, God exists.
But if you want a fair hearing, see links above. But it will not be any more convincing than my very short version.
Edited to add:
For anyone who is even slightly tempted to believe this ridiculous argument, you should read the following as well:
