1: Do you believe that the bible is the literal word of god?
A: No (go to 2)
B: Yes (go to 6)
2: So you agree that some things in the Bible are not literal, like Adam and Eve?
A: No (go to 6)
B: Yes (go to 3)
3.) So the Bible must be interpreted by (hu)man(s) as a collection of allegories?
A: No (they've stone walled. there is no hope. just walk away now)
B: Yes (go to 4)
4.) So who provides the interpretation?
A: X (fill in the blank, go to 5)
5.) So the bible is the literal word of X and you worship X?
A: No (they've stone walled. there is no hope. just walk away now)
B: Yes (oh fuck, they're really drinking the kool-aid. walk away and watch your back!)
6.) So you also believe that people should be killed for wearing cotton blends, that owning slaves is OK, and that it's also OK to sell your daughter?
A: No (they see the error of their ways. Welcome them to the dark side.)
B: Yes (RUNNNNNNNNNNNNN!)
Lol yeah that should have been my approach, although with your method it seems it all ends with "walk away", and you are right in saying so. It is sad that too often theists just get blocked on an idea and wont let anything budge their position.
Also, God can lie. He told Abraham that he wanted him to sacrifice his son. He told Adam and Eve that they would die if they ate the apple.
