If we argue for theism we cannot complain if people get to a theistic position and then decide which god is most reasonable for them to believe in. This is as bad as atheism. | Precisely, according to that apologetic method, all you have done is moved someone from one form of idolatry (atheism) to another (a belief in a god of their own imagination).
