Some atheists use dishonest arguments, no doubt about it. Most religious use dishonest arguments for their respective deity. The only way to not have a religious person use a dishonest argument is to not argue existence of their respective deity. That right there is equal opportunity for the religious, from an atheist's viewpoint. Plenty of religious people are perfectly fine reasoning their way out of a paper bag on almost any topic except for the doubt expressed by non-believers for their respective deity.
