RE: How to debate a Christian
@the OP: there are lots of refutations of common theistic arguments, like the Cosmological and Teleological, online. Iron Chariots is a good website. The main arguments and counter-arguments are summarised well by the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. If you want a serious philosophical refutation, the best book that I have encountered is J.L. Mackie's The Miracle of Theism. This is fairly expensive, even online (about fifteen pounds sterling, I'm not sure how much that is in dollars), but it deals with pretty much every common argument for God's existence.

'We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart.' H.L. Mencken
'False religion' is the ultimate tautology. 'It is just like man's vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because it is dumb to his dull perceptions.' Mark Twain 'I care not much for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it.' Abraham Lincoln |
