After summarising arguments we've all heard before that are already recognised to be fatally flawed, @BloggingTheology considers evidence from the Islamic world, namely the idea of Fitrah.

I contend that this idea is consistent with almost every worldview - certainly the ones I can think of - and doesn't get you to God without begging the statement.

He then moves on to the idea that humans are born with a predisposition to believe in religion and certain supernatural entities, which does appear to be true, but ignores that this could easily be a side-effect of our evolution and that possessing beliefs, even innate ones, doesn't validate the content of those beliefs.
