[Filo]

Have you ever read “Summa Theologica” by St. Thomas Aquinas?

Not in its entirety, no. I've read excerpts and summaries.

It, too, falls under the heading of self-serving "proof" that, like "intelligent design" and most other religion-based proofs, is built with the answer firmly in mind beforehand.

That alone is reason to reject it without consideration.

If you didn’t read the whole thing, then you’ve got your own “answer firmly in mind beforehand.” Based on your own argument, I think I’ll reject your reasoning “without consideration.”
