If you ever find yourself invoking some variation of the Omphalos Hypothesis when explaining your faith, especially if you're trying to convince someone yours is the "one true way," you really need, and I can't stress this enough, to rethink your position.
In doing so you are for all intents and purposes claiming that the universe is lying to you. By extension if you're claiming your god created the universe so that all the physical processes and evidences the sciences have uncovered, and anything that will be discovered in the future are probably entirely false then you are in essence calling your god a liar.
Do you really want to do that?
Well?
