Oh no I totally understand, and I've heard much worse than that. These people start with the conclusion and do everything they can to protect it like it's their baby, just like feminists.
They completely disregard logic and reason, deny facts outright and most of the time they won't even try to understand your points, they'll just try to think of ways to refute them.

The meat of it can be rendered down into: "you already know there's a god and you are lying when you claim to be atheist." There's other stuff too, but it's all in the service of that basic premise.

I've heard stuff like "atheism is a hoax and you are possessed by the devil". It's like they cannot comprehend that someone does not hold their exact beliefs, which is funny because no theist holds the exact same beliefs as another.
