What's the lamest defence of Theism you've ever heard?

Just saw this somewhere:
"Prove to me God doesn't exist" LOL !! The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
One we've had recently is, "We'll see who is right when we're dead."

The fact that so many theists believe any of the philosophical arguments are compelling, is pretty lame.
Ontological, teleological, cosmological, transcendental, or whatever else they parade around. I repeat, pretty lame. You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
Someone actually told me "Hey if you pray on it, you'll see God is real." Um…what?

I have my own personal candidate for a worst argument for God's existence, created by my very own turtley self:
Hypothetical idiotic theist who is super duper pooper-scooper serial and serious, for real-zees Wrote:Hey, God must be real because I saw him. I saw him with my very own eyes. I know he's supposed to be invisible but shut up. I saw him. I saw He who is the Jesusy guy's father and also himself. I saw him sucking donkey balls. And to see He Who Sucks Donkey Balls, it requires that I first see Him, and to see Him requires that He exists for me to see Him. For me to see He Who Sucks Donkey Balls, that is. I saw our Donkey-Ballsucking Father. I saw him and he is real. And he sucks. Balls. Donkey ones. It's kind of a shitty argument.
