1. The one thing Dawkins doesn't understand: God trumps all evidence

If God wants to create scientific evidence that makes it seem that the Universe is 13.8 billion years old and that life on earth began some 3.8 billion years ago, just to befuddle those who think they are smarter than the Bible, then that is exactly what God will do. Nothing stands in His way.

He can even get toothpaste back in the tube.

3. And yet the only people who are confounded are the people who believe in the guy
"We've secretly switched the Abrahamists' Yahweh with a healthy dose of Loki. Let's see if they notice the difference"

7. Dawkins is not a fool...
... read his book "The God Delusion". He discusses your argument/point fully.
