EvC Forum: The Ten Laws of Creationism and Intelligent Design

And this brings up a fantastic thought experiment: if a god wanted to truly test his creation, a great way to do so is give the creation the ability to critically think but at the same time, allow false information to permeate in the world. The actual 'test' would be for those that could look at the data and evidence and realize the true nature of the universe.

Nice concept. Fits well with Deism.

It is a simple concept in the end: either there is one 'true' religion that gets everything right and all the others are wrong. Which is clearly false. Or, more plausibly, all religions are false and that science (which is demonstrable) is correct.

Or thirdly, that all religions are somewhat incomplete and muddled human interpretations, limited by the ability of early people to fully understand things outside their cultural and intellectual limitations, some more correct in some aspects and others in other aspects, and that science can be used to sort the reality of creation from misunderstanding and mistaken interpretations. After all iff reality is the result of creation, then the best way to understand creation (life, the universe and everything) is to understand reality ... to the best of our god-given ability to do so.
