Well, it is a fun game to play. Keeps the wits sharp as well.
It's one of the things I love about religion. For every point, there a just as valid (I.E., unprovable) counter point. And well, the street preachers and such are a source of endless entertainment. I love a good debate on the subject, it's the best way to learn new ideas, but when someone comes up and tells me I'm going to Hell before they even know what I believe, oh, it's on brother. I actually got one of the street preachers to break down and cry once. It was one of the most satisfying moments of my life.
