Once upon a time someone i thought i loved, or at least lusted after, told me, " But, you have to like Neil Diiamond." No, i don't, buddy, and you are suddenly far less attractive as well.
Same principle.

Why debate it? I see religion as man made phenomena to assuage our fears in a confusing world. I am ok with accepting the universe as a mysterious place and mankind as being less than omniscient. I don't think there is an answer to a lot of these questions and feel no urgency to prove anything. I agree with your points though

Without religion, Sapiens wouldn't exist. Let people have their religions. They need them. Don't take away a survival tool. We need all we've got. Don't debate them. They need it. Look at the evolution of Sapiens. Every culture needed two things to survive, no matter where they were on earth. They needed hope and answers. They didn't have science to give them answers, so they invented religion and Sapiens became the top of the food chain. Don't debate them. Religion is the Sapien's answer, just because we can prove them wrong doesn't mean we should.

Religious people use the word 'faith' to describe some vague and wonderful attribute which you must develop if you want to go to heaven, but in reality it just means "stop asking questions and believe whatever we tell you". The quickest way to get kicked out of a church is to ask questions, because a good question might actually cause them to 'think' for once, and maybe question their own faith..

Seems like a no-win situation for you so better prepare to leave. Ask them one last question: where did all those people in the village of Nod came from?

If they can't make up a satisfactory answer, excuse yourself and politely walk away. If they ask you why you're leaving early, tell them you still have to do the dishes and laundry. Should you get heckles and catcalls just raise your hands and laugh with them walking away.

Explain to them that "Faith" does not require any proof and can not be proven I would rather Know something is true thru the scientific process that can be repeated over and over again and will always result in the same conclusions

Tell them that you have faith too ... faith that life began on earth as a result of some simple chemical processes, even though you can't prove it

But there are other things that can be proved. If they believe everything in the bible, then they would say that the earth is 6,000 years old and not 4.6 billion years old. The latter is based on scientific evidence. Why would they choose to ignore this?

Can you argue against faith? To me faith implies you are going to accept something without any evidence if necessary. How can you argue (apply logic) to that? Argument implies logic applied to demonstrable fact - you can't argue with these people

I ask them, “Why is faith a good thing?” The first time I ever asked this it went well. The man I was talking to admitted that he only values faith because people tell him to. Most people say because the bible says so. I press the point that faith is bad epistemology. You can justify any belief through faith, and there is no way to determine fact from fiction because it lacks a corrective mechanism. Most people’s eyes kind of glaze over at “epistemology” but if you have enough time you can back them into a corner that they simply cannot escape. They will be forced to admit the absurdity of faith or knowingly bury their head in the sand.

There is no way to debate faith. Faith is the ultimate reason stopper.

Faith is not something that can be debated; you can debate facts, not irrational beliefs. The only way I've found to make people question their belief is to find contradictions in their own beliefs, within its own inner coherence; anything form outside of the faith, like science and logic, will be ignored. As a side note, Catholics would probably be harder to convince since the Vatican says all of the Old Testament, which has the weirdest stuff, is only to be taken metaphorically, so it can't really be used against itself.

At that point, you're never going to get any rational thought through to them so cut your losses and walk away.

You can't debate with them. You can argue only with a person who will agree to use reason. In falling back to blind faith, they are denouncing the use of reason, logic, and science.
