It’s really besides the point to argue about religion with religious people. Atheism isn’t something that someone can simply come to by thinking things through. It takes a very certain progression in order to get through to actual atheism.
There is little point in proselytizing atheism, and I don’t know of any effective way to do it. I wish that atheists, would, in general, restrict their arguments against religion to the practices of religion that are offensive, such as religious attitudes towards gays are church-state separation.
