What's the best way to shut up a Presuppositionalist?

And the really troubling thing is, where do they get their notions of the latter point? From the former.

It's the same crap we get when we get told that the fool hath said in his heart there is no god, it's just bolstered by this bizarre insistence that the presup gets to take total control of the conversation, and if you can't immediately rebut their three or four bald assertions from the bible, then you no longer have anything else to say.

I'm most familiar with Sye Ten Bruggencate's "debate" style, so I'm not really sure if there's any legitimate humans that attempt this argument, but his entire schtick is nothing more than bullying and interrupting wrapped around a couple bible quotes and an unjust sense of smugness.
