HaKatan: You’re not going to convince anyone who is already on the other side with these arguments, because you’re not attacking the underlying reasoning, just using your opinion and applying it to situations.
You’re looking at everything from the point of view that Israel is apikorsus- others are looking at everything from the opposite viewpoint.
For example:
You say that the Satan sometimes causes us to succeed and survive. Others say that Hashem helped.
You each say that based on what you ALREADY thought. It is a counter-measure that will leave you EXACTLY where you started. You are not proving anything, because you’re relying on you own convictions and you don’t seem to have convinced the others of those basic beliefs.
I’m personally not so much agnostic as possessing my own individual opinions about individual things that don’t always conform with the party line.
