There is nothing to discuss as you put no value in anything that I would have to say because there is no evidence that is irrefutable.
The Bible exists but as it can't be proven to be true. You don't accept it so there's no point in opening up a discussion.
So that I understand properly:
You are saying there is no point in having a debate where the evidence for the proposition has already been refuted?
I could agree with this. But it does bring up the larger issue.
If the proposition fails because all its evidence has been refuted why do you continue to assert its efficacy? Based on what?
If solely by faith then I would also agree a debate has no point since we would be dealing with confirmation bias, critical thinking failure and circular reasoning. These have no place in proper debate.
So maybe this thread should just die.
