Let's see just how crazy you are first then, maybe, it will be worth seeing if you have anything interesting to say.
How do I know you're not crazy? Do you have a statistic on the beliefs of psychotics? 
Tip to talking to a Spiritual person:
1.Don't call them mentally ill
You may or may not be mentally ill. But claiming knowledge of a "higher power" certainly puts you in the "questionable" category.
Quote:2.Don't use ad-hominem
I will suggest you not do the same
Quote:3.Arrogance is discouraged
Sorry, you already failed that one with the suggestion that you know something us poor atheists haven't been able to figure out. I'll match your arrogance one-for-one. Live with it.
Quote:4.Mockery makes you look like a donkey
Mockery works just fine when the person talking is begging to be mocked.
Quote:5.Don't miss-quote them
Don't need too. Eventually quoting them word for word is all it takes to highlight the silliness of their "woo".
