I say that arguing with Theists is futile and generally pointless unless you're just venting or do it for self entertainment. It's like trying to win at a game of chess when your opponent is playing 'Dungeons & Dragons'. It's not so much an uneven playing field as much as it's two entirely different playing fields.
The Theists' argument is based on the supernatural whereas the Atheists' argument is hampered or restricted by reality. You can't use rationality or logic in an argument against someone who as a Theist, by definition, has rejected rationality and logic...
