The difficulty in discussing religion especially with a believer is that there seems to be more faith involved than logic. You might hear something like "I don't know exactly why I believe but the holy spirit entered my body and I am convinced I'm right". There is not much to debate unless you want to say that they are fooling themselves which can be taken as a personal attack.
I try to give believers the benefit of the doubt that they are genuinely concerned with my well being. After all some are convinced that if you do not believe as they do that you will be damned to suffer for all eternity in hell. You know, "Oh Ye of little faith", and I have little faith that any one religion has all the answers but they may contain a grain of truth as a group.
