Outsmarted by a Christian, need help to contradict

[Eilonnwy]

You seem to think that since we (in general) agree that Zeus and FSM is ridiculous we should agree that we can't lose a debate when it's the Christian God too because they're on the same level? That's just silly. The point of compaing God, Zeus, and FSM is to show that the evidence is lacking, but at the end of the day we can't absolutely prove Zeus or even the FSM absolutely does not exist and teh same goes for God. So if you fall into the trap of asserting that, you can lose the debate. Just as you can lose a debate against UFO believers or bigfoot believers if you don't know what you're doing or how your arguing, it doesn't matter how silly the thing is that the other person is arguing.

I've actually seen a lot of posts in my blog list about atheists debating. I've heard some of the mroe experienced debator point out flawed arguments atheists make and how some atheists need to stop arguing this way or that way because it's dumb. Here's one such post:

Here is a great quote from that post:

Here's the bottom line: it's all too common for atheists to assume that the ridiculousness of religion should be apparent to everyone. The facts should speak for themselves, we say. Well, they don't. Facts don't speak, people do. Apologists use rhetorical tricks and live debates because it's a good forum to gain media attention. So what are we going to say -- that we should abandon this medium to them? Why? Are atheists just inherently dumber than theists when it comes to style and charisma? No, I don't think so. This is a shortcoming that needs to be corrected, and the time to start is now.
