What is the dumbest thing you've ever heard a theist say?

A former co-worker of my husband:
"Satan planted dinosaur bones in the earth to confound the minds of people and turn them away from God."

I've heard that argument from multiple sources.

Apparently Satan is really powerful and god isn't, or isn't paying attention.  So much for all knowing and/or all powerful.

Maybe Satan planted God in the bible to turn people away from dinosaurs.

That actually seems very credible because God comes with all sorts of moronically hucksterish enticements, while dinosaurs are content to on their own merit.

People even on this forum have used the argument that Christianity must be true because it became popular.

Again, substitute in any other religion and the argument still "works".

Dumbest thing a theist has said: "I'm a theist."

Just kidding.

Like that one guy just posted in another thread, about how it must be real if people have been proclaiming it for two thousand years.

Then the Egyptian gods are 50% more real that Jesus because they were worshiped for a 1000 years longer than he has been so far.
