I propose that in so doing, they are borrowing from the theist worldview, which is able to account for the absolutes everyone uses.

Theists don't use logic to support their contentions. They fall back on a dependence on faith to explain the unexplainable portions of their philosophy. As has been said by theists here before, "you have to believe to believe".

There is nothing in the atheist worldview that can account for using certain philosophical tools

As far as I know, the atheist's view is that theism cannot support their contentions that gods exist. How does that imply that atheism cannot use philosophical "tools" to debunk theology.

Poorly argued truth is a sad thing to see.

Since I don't consider it "truth" I won't hold that against anyone.

Not I. I would contend that what some, in a desire to believe, perceive as "miraculous" can always be explained as the result of a natural process. The idea that gods exist has not been proven in over 10,000 years. I fail to see why I should expect it would happen in the 21st century. The more we come to understand the workings of nature, the less the need to suppose the gods. The voids in our knowledge they once filled are disappearing. We are learning just how capable nature is. The gods are no longer necessary.
