that's true... it's just a shame that the arguments used to persuade atheists are still the same no matter which year you have the discussion :)

argument from ignorance, appeal to emotion, Pascal's wager, infinite regression,...

 

did I forget any?

The arguments are many and they remain the same (with some new additions every once in a while) because while they aren't conclusive to hardcore atheists or skeptics, it's pretty hard to refute any one of them in their entirity.

Actually, it's pretty easy to refute the arguments. Problem is, theists will not accept that they're wrong and will always revert the burden of proof. "Since you can't prove that God doesn't exist, I'm right". And it's kinda impossible to prove that the dragon in your garage doesn't exist.
