You can truly believe in something and STILL BE WRONG.

What I find particularly funny about this argument is that the theist using it never seems to take into account the people who have died for competing religions.

It's actually a kind of strange quirk of a lot of theist arguments; they seem to be operating under the idea that the particular religion of the arguer is the only one there is, and ever has been.
