I do not believe what You believe.
Let's start with that assumption and further work to common purpose.

This is the tactic I use with right wingers and it seems to work. You'd be surprised how often they can be persuaded into evolving (even if they don't believe in evolution!)

3. I will never argue what you believe.
Because what you believe you believe. Because belief is based on faith. However what you think you have reasons for. Then we have an argument.(no you don't)

5. Belief beyond faith is based on life experience
and prejudices, and caveats and so on...

That is why I do not believe what You believe.
