Ya'll do what you have to do but it's not going to change his dog and pony show one little bit.
As long as you keep him here you can't have this approach. You can't let him spread his lies without being questioned - that is every theist's wet dream.
Besides, some people come here for therapy. This guy is either lonely or lives in a religious bubble so he needs to be exposed to criticism. I mean when it comes down to debating Christians, it is never a debate but teaching them truth from misconceptions they have been brainwashed with.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
