Tell them you believe that God created the big boom, that usually get's them
thinking.

When I find myself in a situation such as yours Jay, I cannot help but
to
"debate" if you like, the existance of God
If I'm sitting around a camp fire, I'm the same way. I'll debate
religion
until I run out of breath.
I'm afraid that debating the existence of God would be quite a waste of
breath for it isn't possible to prove or disprove. And doing so would be
fruitless because religion deals with beliefs and you'll never convince a
truly religious person that their beliefs are unfounded. Your only success
will be in ****ing them off. Now, if they are trying to convert/convince
you
then they deserve what they get.
My Dad's advice for me has always been (he's an agnostic) "If you want to
remain friends with someone, never discuss religion or politics." His
advice
has worked well for me for 38 years now.
I would say that debating God's existence around a campfire would be quite
a
waste of a good campfire.
