I don't like debating with people who refuse to put their core beliefs out on the table.

I don't like debating with someone who has to tailor their argument to a POV or make the other party part of the argument. Logic is on your side or it isn't. Argue in the alternative if you like, as long as they don't contradict each other. It will immediately become clear if the disagreement is a matter of logic or assumptions. If you disagree with something I said, then disagree with it. Don't keep asking me to give you something else to disagree with.

Who said I did? What sense does it make for me to debate with you as if you were a Catholic if you're an atheist? There is no accusation in this. I just want to have a better idea of what I'm up against.

Good heavens. If you feel it's absolutely necessary to argue behind a smoke screen, there's no point in even bothering. Good day.
