It means your hypothetical is just that, hypothetical. God(religion) will not be "destroyed" no matter what argument you start with.

That's not my point. My point is that some believers will reject God because they're given an either/or situation. I never claimed that someone's goal of "destroying Christianity" would be successful. Just that they will succeed in tempting some away from God by starting an emotional fight over an unimportant issue. Every person lost in this way is a tragedy and believers should not enable it.

Then they don't believe. Not a particularly difficult situation to parse. Lot's of people, knowing the truth, have rejected God.

Jos 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that [were] on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

Jhn 6:65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

Jhn 6:66 From that [time] many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
