Responding to Supercilious Atheists

I guess If I were inclined to argue with atheists this article would be the way to go about it. The Bible says that atheists are fools so I am not convinced that arguing with fools will get you anywhere. If casting pearls before swine has a real application it certainly might apply to debating atheists

Not all atheists are supercilious, of course. Many are content to live and let live, and some even grant that religion (which, in America, basically means Christianity) does some good.  But atheism as an organized, evangelizing movement has been on the offensive lately.  Witness the “New Atheists” such as Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris and Christopher Hitchens, with their aggressive stance against God and
their bestselling books attempting to debunk religion. So, assuming you are a theist, what do you say to the atheist who asks, “You don’t (chuckle) actually believe in God, do you (snicker)?”
