When limited purely by empirical, reproducible, and/ or primae facie evidence, the furthest one can take a God argument is that
a) intelligent life exists
b) intelligent life exists in many forms, some more powerful than others
c) it is unknown how powerful and intelligent a lifeform can be, and how powerful and intelligent a lifeform presently exists,
d) there is an unproven possibility that at least one intelligent lifeform may have reached a degree of power to perform acts such as: changing water into wine, levitating, walking on water, curing of sick by touch, bringing dead things back to life.

Yeah, the English is fine, I was talking about logically. The C and D premises don't make sense logically in that they might as well not even be there. There are an infinite amount of unproven and unknown things, so saying that there are unknown and unproven things, doesn't do anything to the argument. They are irrational.
