Nobody is asking you to do that.
Just a couple examples will do.
The fact that you aren't doing it, shows that it's not as easy to find as you like to claim it is.
You could easily win the argument by SHOWING here how she is wrong, by actually providing a couple of links to example posts that show how these things you accuse atheists off are supposedly so common.

What are the best and worst things about heaven?
..."I have such little knowledge of historical religion that it's much easier for me to fool myself with confirmation bias and the delusional belief that lack of knowledge allows me to see the truth" could also be: "I am extremely fortunate I don't care at all about actual knowledge and...Can we change our mind about what we believe?
...them. YET, at the same time you want others to accept a new religion just on faith, not even with evidence? That is so hypocritical and delusional it shows the hold these beliefs have on people. They ignore facts, expect people to do what they would never do. Guess what? Bahai is claiming he...What is the threshold for labeling a religious belief as a “delusion”?
Hmmmm. Ignorance means a specific lack of knowledge. One in a state of ignorance may be unaware of their ignorance or to what extent they are ignorant. From my understanding, delusion is mental pathology, not mere persistence in holding on to false or incorrect belief. There are lots of...(Religion) Which is more important: to be factually correct or to be content?
A good approach to mythology is realizing that such stories are meant to inspire and motivate, rather than the crazy delusional notion people have into thinking that such outlandish mythology is real and had actually occurred in real life.Imaginary friends
There is no evidence for God, so why do you believe?
Parents are real. They were not imaginary friends where anytime you needed something you managed to get it and then gave credit to your imaginary parents. And when you didn't get it you used this post hoc rationalization that they "can't get you everything"? And when thou prayest, thou shalt...Atheists: What would be evidence of God’s existence?
Genuine laugh out loud! Comforting imaginary friends explains it perfectly well. Of course, one group may have got it right (it's not impossible) but that makes the others wrong. It's also possible that there's something there that they've all misinterpreted, but I see no reason at all to take...Atheist looking for religious debate. Any religion. Let's see if I can be convinced.
I'm sure there are many people who get similar benefits from talking to their imaginary friends.
Is it difficult to understand theists?
No imaginary friends. But kids know that they're imaginary. I encouraged mine to make up some. Oh, the hilarious misadventures they had.Mocking in debates
As a heads up, we can (and have) infracted people for using this language. It's not okay with the rules in most (but not all) contexts.Conversion after death
No, I’m rejecting the fantasy you’ve invented because it’s insulting. Leave the dead to rest in peace. Just stop it... unless you want me to start making up stories about what your dead relatives are doing with my imaginary friends these days.Man made religion
Does Jesus ever talk back to you when you talk to him? I'm sorry, not to be too disrespectful, but I gave up my imaginary friend around 6 years old. It's like adult coloring books. I just don't have any interest in talking with imaginary friends.What is wrong with smashing the idols?
I don't even trust my own Imaginary friends.
Why are you an atheist?
It doesn't stop theists from having imaginary friends, or posting in groups where they don't belong.Fairy tails
