As I tell my stepdaughter (who is a christoholic) as long as it is admitted that their belief is based on faith and not any type of science, then I have no problem. It is when they try to promote their crap by saying they have scientific evidence that their is a problem. Then I have no problem debating them but on faith, there is no reason to debate since as my signature says, they are out of reach of rational conviction nor do they deserve a rational argument. Science has nothing to do with their god beliefs so why not correct them and why feel guilty about it?

edit: She does admit her belief is faith based and she freely admits she can show no evidence.
