"Pointless to argue matters of faith."

I was arguing about the factual errors in his presentation. I do realize that matters of faith per se are almost never good ideas to debate. But when someone quotes someone in order to make it seem like they believe the opposite of how they do, or when they try to pass off someone who wrote something 120 years ago as a modern scientist against Darwin, these are matters of fact, not faith. And when this person sends you a very long, detailed post, and you answer just about every point on it in detail, one expects a little more than
"Sorry, I presented the evidence of the experts that refute your claims.

That means I won."

It's not a very Christian thing of that person to do.
