Once a person has learned, and repeated these arguments numerous times, it just becomes easier to go to snarky dismissal, I suppose, since the well thought logical rebuttals (repeated ad-nauseum) got them nowhere, I suppose the average person goes for the quick fix.
Isn't that rather the point though. For the sake of argument let's assume that the standard objections are valid. You must admit that at least some of those refutations require an high level of discernment to find the faulty premise, break in logic, or misleading ambiguity. Now if it takes that much work to counter the logical demonstrations for the existence of God, can you say that sorting out whether or not these complex objections are valid should be as easy to the average person as dismissing the tooth fairy as a childhood superstition?
