It is not.
We know that the overwhelming reason humans associate with a given religious system is due to their birth culture.
Christians claim that faith is a "gift" (not under rational control) and Dim-wit-dale seems to think if one honestly cannot see the claims of any religion have any merit,
that "cannot see the claim to have merit" is it self equivalent to a "god-granted" faith. .... Doesn't say much for what religionists think about their faith, now does it.

Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
