I've been using a similar approach from time to time in religious discussions, irl. I give them even more, though. I ask whether or not there might be things associated with their faith that they wouldn't agree with -regardless- of the existence of a god. Could be anything, really, from the innerrency of scripture to the bedroom busybodyism of peepergod.
I've known enough grunts to know it's a waste of time discussing anything with head bobbers. Unless theyre willing to hold their own diety to some standard, "god will(s) it" will always seem like a sufficient answer to any question regardless of what that question is, as far as they're concerned. Why is the sky blue? Gods will. Why are we bipedal? Gods will. Why can't I shake my pecker four times after I piss? God's will. When is slavery okay? Gods will. Who deserves to die? Gods will.
