How often do we all hear this one: ARGUMENT FROM INCOMPLETE DEVASTATION (1) A plane crashed killing 143 passengers and crew. (2) But one child survived with only third-degree burns. (3) Therefore, God exists. Reading these reminds me of this:

Indeed, whilst I don't know if faith can move mountains, I've seen what it can do to skyscapers. If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71.
I love this one:
ARGUMENT FROM LACK OF EYEWITNESS (II) (1) No one's ever seen one species turn into another. (2) Therefore, God exists. I had to think of the Broccoli and Gerbil video.

Wow, just... WOW.
ONTOLOGICAL ARGUMENT (I)
(1) I define God to be X. (2) Since I can conceive of X, X must exist. (3) Therefore, God exists. Lol, throw in the words "maximally perfect" and you have Alvin Plantinga!

ARGUMENT FROM EXHAUSTION (abridged)
(1) Do you agree with the utterly trivial proposition X? (2) Atheist: of course. (3) How about the slightly modified proposition X'? (4) Atheist: Um, no, not really. (5) Good. Since we agree, how about Y? Is that true? (6) Atheist: No! And I didn't agree with X'! (7) With the truths of these clearly established, surely you agree that Z is true as well? (8) Atheist: No. So far I have only agreed with X! Where is this going, anyway? (9) I'm glad we all agree..... .... (37) So now we have used propositions X, X', Y, Y', Z, Z', P, P', Q and Q' to arrive at the obviously valid point R. Agreed? (38) Atheist: Like I said, so far I've only agreed with X. Where is this going? .... (81) So we now conclude from this that propositions L'', L''' and J'' are true. Agreed? (82) I HAVEN'T AGREED WITH ANYTHING YOU'VE SAID SINCE X! WHERE IS THIS GOING? .... (177) ...and it follows that proposition HRV, SHQ'' and BTU' are all obviously valid. Agreed? (178) [Atheist either faints from overwork or leaves in disgust.] (179) Therefore, God exists.

^^ Yep. Conversion is all about who can overwhelm and drown one's senses in emotion with the greatest efficacy. It's a bit like water torture.
