It is difficult to keep the debate structured because the topic of debate, as viewed by its own supporters, is so varied.
Until there is an agreement about what the bible and religion really represent, religious people are going to be frustrated because the atheist/agnostic "side" will be misrepresenting them; and the atheist/agnostics will be frustrated because the religious argument appears to be a moving target.
