You should really consider reading Aristotle if you're going to have these kinds of discussions. The more brainy you try to present yourself, the stupider you look.
You're like a guy who saw an episode of "This Old House" hitting himself in the dick with a hammer.

You have latched onto one part of human communication (logic) and you're running around trying to wield it like an unstoppable hammer.
What you don't realize is that you completely lack the wisdom and reputation to effectively espouse your point of view. You have chosen to create a confrontational approach to this discussion and as a result, no one is on your side here. Not the Christians, not the faithful of other religions, not the atheists, not the agnostics.
You have also neglected to make any kind of emotional connection with your audience. Simply put, none of us are regarding you as a friend or a peer of any kind.
You come off as a kid who is pissed off that mom made him go to church. Now you want to tell everyone else what to do--basically the same thing that pissed you off.
You also apparently lack the foresight and life experience to realize that even if you spend the rest of your life having arguments like this one, it is highly improbable that you will affect the opinions of even a single person.
But feel free to keep yelling. Just don't expect to make any friends. As an alternative, you could try a little humility. You could try listening. You could try to understand.
