How to really annoy a fundy in two easy steps.
1: "God makes mistakes."

2: "How do I know? Well, he made you, didn't he?"

If the fundy in question can formulate a coherent sentence after this, there may be hope for him/her.

:evilgrin:

1. I always say...
... God is all knowing, right? And that means that he would be consistent and never change his mind, right?...

After that I point out the numerous glaring inconsistencies between the New Testament and Old Testament. Whenever they try to say that the rules changed when Jesus was born I say "Exactly, they changed. God changed his mind. I guess he doesn't know everything and isn't infallible."

2. Almost related...
By definition God is perfect. One of the things that means, is that He creates perfection, but...

You're so infinitely far from perfect--the very definition of flawed (by any measure)--you couldn't possibly be the product of God. Alas, by your own definition, you are.

So...
1. God created you,

Therefore,
2. God doesn't (couldn't) exist**...

**and if "He" did exist, if he had any self-respect, "He'd" have committed suicide out of shame by now. Still, think of it, it just goes to show how important you are! Either proving your Creator doesn't exist or guaranteeing His Self-Demise by virtue your own existence--really is impressive! But then, you always knew you were special, didn't you?

Or...
3. Your "God" is pathetically far from perfect (not omnipotent, not omnicient and not all-anything for that matter, least of all, all-good)(exception? well, He certainly is Omni-impotent).

Therefore,
4. Your God isn't really a "God". (If He exists, you've either been worshipping a pretender or delusionally attributing false qualities upon Him; take your pick).

Aren't you proud now? Remember, though, before you are... Pride is one of your Seven Deadly Sins! Want to hurt me? That's a sin too. Be a good believer and at least pretend you prefer to avoid sin, okay?

By this point, either they've become apopleptic or have done great bodily harm to you, and most likely the latter. If not, there may be hope for them yet.

Disclaimer: Relax, I'm Willing to Respect Your Religious Beliefs! To Exactly the Same Degree You're Willing to Respect Mine.
