Pretty much, with an added side of ignoring that if they -were- the same thing, the desired conclusion is DOA.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

What scientists believe is one thing. What the science demonstrates is quite another. The day the two things line up one way or the other is the day there will be no more theists or atheists.
Along with his actual scientific disciplines, Sir Isaac Newton was also a practising alchemist. His discoveries in the fields of astronomy and physics changed the world; his alchemical ones, not so much.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

They haven't found a way to turn lead into gold. The illuminatti stole that secret to keep gold prices up.

I'm a maths dummy myself, so can I ask the AF experts whether there's any logic in the notion, or is it just wishfull thinking by theists?

Of course what the christards leave out is that as Dr Anthony Flew grew old he grew senile, and had the misfortune to fall in with a bunch of very manipulative and immoral christards who decided that it was better for them to make up Dr Flew's mind than the man himself.
If you read any of his later writings or talks which touched upon his "conversion" to theism, you'll see none of the lucidity or intelligence which permeated his earlier scientific work, and find a lot of the common points you'll see in bargain basement badly argued apologetics by the kind of christards that are now dictating his words.

It's a complete error to say that DNA (or any natural system) emulates computer programs and/or software. It's literally the exact opposite. We program technology to simulate and/or emulate natural processes (like processing information).

I'm no math dummy but I may be a total dummy where gods are concerned. I've seen a little math but I've never seen a trace of god - either in the math or any where else. On the other hand, I've found the phrase "In God we trust" engraved on money - and I do believe in money. If your faith had been faltering maybe that will help you make it to the finish line. But give up on the math, there is no God there.
