It’s been said that you can’t use reason to argue someone out of a position or belief that they didn’t accept or arrive at using reason. Since there is no external evidence for the truth of any of the tenets of Christianity, the Bible is all they’re left with. Pointing out to them that their arguments and “evidence” are, therefore, circular is “like trying to beat a pigeon at chess. All he does is strut around knocking over the pieces and crapping on the board.”
