The problem with discussing/debating with people of faith is just that, they have faith. Once you have complete faith in something almost eveything can be explained away based on your beliefs.
One interesting debate I read recently was about the flood story and Noah. Apparently the Mesopotamians had written the Epic of Gilgimesh flood story very similar to the Bible's version hundreds of years before the Bible was written. One would logicly think that the writers of the Bible borrowed and rewrote the story. But a true believer may say something like, well God inspired the story and it was probably not written down for centuries and instead passed down verbally and the Bible's version is the correct one. There is no way to really refute something like this. You just gotta believe.
