Why are you asking a Muslim if they found an honest way to dismiss Islam ? There obviously isn't any, from my perspective. I think some arguments for the existence of a just God are compelling, I accept the existence of a God. A just god in turn has to have already sent us guidance, I look at the candidate religions for perfect guidance, Islam is the closest match. bingo.
Maybe you're referring to the falsifiability criterion. I actually don't think this criterion can applied outside of the realm of scientific theories. There is no problem with something both true and unfalsifiable. Besides, Islam relies on the quranic text plus a substantial amount of authentic hadiths. If we accept consistency and correctness of scripture as a falsifiability criterion, it's already vulnerable to being falsified if any of the hadiths and/or quranic verses is shown to be false beyond any doubt.
A word of warning here : I don't have a rebuttal for every existent religion on earth. I am just giving my evaluation of the traditional belief systems. Christian trinitarian belief just happens to be something that can be dismissed outright, because it contains a plain logical impossibiltiy: the trinitarian god. Islam endorses monotheism, to my knowledge there is no logical problem with the existence of a unique God, for which I think there are compelling arguments. In this sense, Judaism is superior and less obviously false than christianity.
