Ah, another theist defends his delusions with logical fallacies.
Like this one
Here is an example of that "order" of nature:
Obviously, the intelligent design of nature is a delusion, so he defends it by quoting Hume which should be an Argument from authority logical fallacy (bc Hume was a famous philosopher) and also Quote Mining fallacy. So, like I said: theist defends his delusions with logical fallacies.
Here is the whole formula
Theist argument = (delusion+logical fallacy)^self confidence * persistence

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
