Doesn't really matter if you are responding to one, or many, your arguments are no less flawed.
I am sure that anyone here that agrees to debate you, will easily be able to detect all the fallacies in your arguments.
Unless you are going to offer anything new, why waste your and our time?
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

I came to the conclusion long ago that this is impossible. So many times I gave the arguer the benefit of doubt and listened only to find it was the same old shit arguments. I can tell already that the OP is going to offer up some logical arguments instead of actual evidence. I would assume that the argument for step 2 will likely be some variant of the Kalam cosmological argument. In fact, I seem to remember seeing a similar argument a few months ago, except step 3 concluded it was some form of Christianity which was the "one true faith".
Have you ever noticed all the drug commercials on TV lately? Why is it the side effects never include penile enlargement or super powers?
Side effects may include super powers or enlarged penis which may become permanent with continued use. Stop taking Killatol immediately and consult your doctor if you experience penis enlargement of more than 3 inches, laser vision, superhuman strength, invulnerability, the ability to explode heads with your mind or time travel. Killatoll is not for everyone, especially those who already have convertibles or vehicles of ridiculous size to supplement penis size.

Yeah start the debate, I have my popcorn ready. 
I hope it's something other than the Kalam argument, or silly things like the uniqueness of Quran and BS numerological mess contained within it.

On a side note, if you are serious about your proof, why not post it in a public thread? It's not like you are obligated to respond to every single comment, and more importantly I won't have to wait around to enjoy myself. I am pretty bored without mafia.

Because people mock and also spray shower a bunch of things, with many points being a topic in itself. I rather focus on one person.

Nothing. But it would be harder to focus while people say things, and I want have an official debate that lasts some posts and comes to an end. That way, there isn't this super long thread with so many comments and people saying I haven't answered or replied to their points. 5 posts to 5 posts will be sufficient.

From a psychological perspective, it makes me laugh how they use the term one true god.
This is to differentiate their god from everyone else's false god.
MK, you don't need to convince us of anything, we're not shopping around for a god.
You need to convince all the other religious people who believe in the wrong god.
Once the world starts believing in only one god, then we'll tell you why that one is bullshit too.
Baby steps my friend.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

Of course there will be. You are arguing on the side of pure fantasy - you can and do make up "new" meaningless and untestable sh*t, as you please. 
And naturally, you never acknowledge, that the vast majority of theists - and even muslims - do not agree with your convoluted, solipsistic nonsense.
Debating you - any theist, really - is like playing a game with a child, who's making up rules as they go, in order to present themselves as the winner, no matter what.
