The illogicality of belief revealed?

Do you think this approach - of pointing out where belief is illogical - is helpful, or is logic not worth it when talking to the religious?

I have made posts like this trying to explain the illogicality to believers, but I just thought to myself: is it even worth bothering arguing in the realms of logic?

Read my signature and you should be able to guess what my answer is.
