1) Just because an individual believes x, y or z, doesn't mean that is what other members of their faith believe.
Take the time to learn about what you are criticizing. This actually covers the bulk of crazy arguments based on overly broad assumptions or plainly false information, which I find terribly irritating.

Just because they can't see him, many assume God is invisible or non-existant.
As evearael pointed out, there are a LOT of prejudiced statements about Christians. In fact, there is an outright antagonism constantly displayed by a few. Then there is the constant baseless condescension. No, believing in Christianity is not the same as believing in invisible pink unicorns. For the record: Evolution is evidence for God, and not the opposite.

I can't think of any in general. Criticisms of my religion almost always come from other religions.

I can't really think of any, although I know I've heard some. Usually these would be criticisms from people who have not taken enough time to understand/research the religion. Or sometimes they are just mimicries of other peoples (valid) criticisms, but stated in a way that show the criticizer doesn't really understand the depth of what s/he is talking about. And to me it's crazy to argue something when you don't understand your own side.

My favourite is "Religion is responsible for everything wrong with the world and without religion the world would be peachy keen."
I chortle every time I hear/read it.
