> I guess it depends on the attack.  If it's along the lines "Dude, your
religion sucks" then it will just make them defensive.

If you do it along these lines they probably won't talk to you at all.

>Somewhat more indirect approaches, such as satire and/or logical problems
(eg, dealing with the problem of evil in the game*) might raise more doubt
than defenses.

That still depends on what kind of people you're talking to. Some simply
won't accept criticism of their views in any form. And religion just as
politics is an especialy delicate subject. People tend to get very emotional
about it very quickly and one shouldn't wonder - we are talking about the
ideas underlying their whole worldview.

pleasure with a new  friend, and lift up the heart of a true friend by
writing his name on the wings of a dragon."
