Happy to oblige.

If the purpose of the interaction is to change the other's beliefs, then yes it is equivalent.

"Should"... There's an interesting word...

I think it's impossible (or near enough) for someone to convince me to become a believer... as such, I think it's also nearly impossible for me to convince anyone to believe differently from what they believe.
I will happily share my point of view, how I came to be the way I am and what sort of events or facts have helped me consolidate my lack of belief in deities. I will try to understand the other person's point of view, how s/he came to be that way and what sort of events have helped her/him consolidate the belief in deity/ies. And I can offer my point of view on what aspects of that belief are not based on reality as I perceive it.
But I know very well that anything I say is very very very unlikely to alter the other's beliefs.
