Sidenote: If you do indeed agree with most of their arguments on religion, given that most religionists don't get spirituality or that most Christians don't get Christianity, would you not then have to concede the debate?

If they are "mostly" right then shouldn't the debate be whether the New Atheists have some misunderstandings on religion, or have made some absolute statements about religion that do not apply to your spirituality, or have no arguments against your particular brand of "religion"?
