J&M pointing out a common phenomenon among believers in that they think Atheists must be obsessed with their particular religion simply because many of us know enough to be able to argue coherently against it. Often these debates rest on points that the religious person either hasn't really thought about or are unable to deal with although are usually generic arguments of logic and reason that apply to almost all religions and other beliefs that rely on "faith" for their authority. As Hitch used to say, "all religions are wrong in the same way, in that they promote faith over reason and evidence".
