I don't have any heroes, per se, but there are plenty I respect a lot.
Ingersol, Sagan, Dennet, for a start.
Harris I like.
Hitchens could eviscerate almost any argument, but, as previously mentioned, was wrong on the war.
Matt Dilhunty is one of the strongest debaters around. He has a firm grasp of logic, and an extensive Biblical knowledge.
I'll also add Carlin and Bill Hicks to the list.

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.
