I'm developing a counter apologetic argument... Critiques please?

By the way, just as a general non-debate recon, what type of Christian are you? Do you take the entire Bible literally? Are you a YEC? Would you consider yourself a presuppositional apologist?

The first question is a bit vague. I'll answer by saying that I was one of those people who originally thought the whole concept of Christianity was hogwash until reading the words of Christ and hearing the proclamation of the Gospel had a powerful impact on me to where I believed it. Then I began my quest digging through the bible learning more and more. Had a very strong mentor and a good church family. Given my theological beliefs, I tend to not label myself for the sake of witnessing but my beliefs coincide with the baptist church which I am most acquainted with. I'm labeled as a Calvinist which tends to make me laugh a lot.

Do you take the entire Bible literally? Not the entire bible. I am sure the authors of the different books use certain techniques to get their points across to their readers that aren't always literal.

Are you a YEC?

I don't consider myself that because the bible does not make it clear how old the earth is. I feel like when Christians go on their troll routes with arguing over the age of the earth, it totally wanders away from what the author wanted to communicate in Genesis. So I tend to not argue over it but just state my thoughts and not get offended if someone doesn't agree.

Would you consider yourself a presuppositional apologist?

Kinda. The Christian belief won't help you solve math problems or predict the weather. And will not teach one the scientific method. How's that for an answer?
