That's why the concept of God is necessary, it's because we care about rationality -unlike you, you think I am arbitrarily adding qualifiers to God to make it escape falsification. Well, no, you got it backwards: our position is that a deity is a necessary condition to existence, it's not an optional add-on. No god means no existence. No entity with sufficient qualifiers means no Anomalocaris.
Why in the world would you assume something as complicated as an intelligence would be required for anything else to exist?
Why cannot the universe itself 'simply exist' with no cause? That is, after all, what you are assuming about some deity.
