Its been my experience that theists are rarely even interested in whether or not their religion makes sense on a logical basis. I have gotten the impression from quite a few that they know damn well it doesn't. They don't care. They are more concerned with what they get out of it. They get comfort and community and aren't willing to give that up. The only way they will dump their religion is if there is something they can replace it with that gives them the same thing.
I'm sure this is the main reason why theists often look at atheists as assholes - just for making a logical argument against their religion. They're thinking, 'I've got something that comforts me and I need it. For no good reason, you come in here trying to screw that up. You're an asshole!'

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
