I love that quote from A Few Good Men. Occasionally when I get irked enough by a retarded argument from a theist I'll paint them as Colonel Jessup.
"I want the truth"
Jessup "YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH. In theism we use fallicies, non-sequiturs, appeal to tradition, appeal to authority. The truth is what you don't say in public. My existence, while grotesque, provides fantasy to the gullible, it gives them a crutch. Who is going to do that YOU! You poke fun of my beliefs and wont bow to the theocracy I deny I want. I'd prefer you take your seat at the back of the bus and say thank you. EITHER WAY I DONT GIVE A DAMN what you think of my superstition!"
"Colonel Jessup, DO YOU HAVE ANY EVIDENCE!"
Jessup, "GOD DAMNED RIGHT I DONT!"
