Well, it can be useful in debates about a wide variety of subjects. For example, if they argue that there can be no morality without the Bible, you can easily provide countless examples of extremely immoral acts in the book. This is after you show them how morality can and does exist in people who don't follow any holy books of course.
I have seen atheists stumble in arguments due to their lack of knowledge about religious texts such as the Bible and Quran. It is essentially the same as some creationists talking about evolution while not even having a basic understanding of it. You have to know your subject well if you debate it.
