Most challenging arguement you have faced?

If so what was it? How did you respond?

I personally have never encountered a challenging arguement. Perhaps there is none. I'm just curious.

Can't say as I've encountered a particularly tough argument. I always ask for hard evidence and just about every time it comes down to "You have to have faith", or "We can't comprehend God", or "You've closed your mind to the possibility of God", blah blah blah. This seems to be the fallback position for believers.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
