If you've had many long conversations with theists about the basis of their beliefs, this video may interest/amuse you:

I love the part where she dramatizes "God loves him anyway".

Her acting (edit: in that one specific video only) is not bad for someone her age, posting youtube videos.

yeah i was looking at some Sam Harris videos and that one showed on a list,it was kind of misleading so i checked it out and at first i was thinking it was about hating nonbelievers then after i few i was like,lol oh i see.Your right though she did a pretty decent job

its been two years since i turned my back to the dogmatic society where i belong.i admit,.im a closet atheist and i dont know how will i approach this to my family knowing theyre christian fanatics and they have no idea about atheism in any way.one thing is for sure...it'll be one hard heathen life.

If you're ballsy invite them in for bourbon and porn. Ha-ha. I've never been that ballsy though. I'm generally polite, but send them on their way. I often just don't go to the door.

I personally think it's rude to waste their time. I've had it happen once from a 7th day Adventist. He was maybe 16 or 17. Knocked on my door at my apartment, and I answered thinking it was someone expected. He asked me some questions about my beliefs and I kindly thanks for the concern, but I was completely disinterested. He tried one more plea, but I stopped him (and this is where I can thank my parents for a Christian raised household) and said "kick the dust off your feet my friend, I'm set in my stance". He said thank you very much and left promptly to the next door.

I think it's imperative that as a community of nonbelievers (and yes, I think it's an appropriate term for us) that we show believers that we aren't actively trying to tear them down like many of their counterparts have probably done to us. It's our responsibility to show them that you don't have to believe in a god to do the right thing.

I simply do not answer the door if I'm not expecting company or pizza. We get our door knocked on probably every few months by religious nuts. From a recent story of people posing as jehovah witnesses to assault the residents have made me even more wary to open the door.

I Have been agnostic most of my life. I was raised in a rural church. I am now atheist. In my experience I have always given off an amusing smile. I'm polite and unthreatening. It tends to send them off quickly. Sometimes I think that it puts fear in a Cristian to see confidence in an agnostic. It wouldn't hurt for more atheists to be pro-active in a polite manner and not be angry or ashamed. Just speak your mind and be at peace. I still hold Cristian values as it seems logical to me. I just believe this life is all we get.

I just look them straight in the face and tell them I'm a scienctolgist. Gets them every time

When they wake you up in the early mornings...anser the door in speedo's only. Think that would work better in the summer tho
