The main problem with this philosophical argument
(inference to the best explanation) is that, at best, it leads to a testable hypothesis. Apologists run with this and make an argument from
ignorance, or form a “God of the Gaps” argument. Science works and has
progressed human knowledge by requiring hypotheses to be able to be
falsified. Many claims of religions are not falsifiable, however,
all falsifiable hypotheses posited by religious apologists have been falsified. One is entitled to one's opinion, but not one's
facts.
