Although I am not certain why there would have to be one Supreme Being, your argument at least makes some sense and isn't circular. Thank you.

I do not deny that Other religions have something fueling them. Religious People are not as stupid as most atheist say they are. If their was nothing behind a religious belief then that belief would die. That said, not all beliefs are correct. Many were created to mislead and to pander to what people want.
Hindus and other faiths also 'experience' their god. They would use the exact argument that you are using.
"If you seek Vishnu as he instructs at some point in your existence you will indeed see him."
What you are arguing works for all other faiths also. That is my point. Can you come up with an argument that only applies to your god.
As for the rest of your quote, when have I ever said that religious people are stupid? Religion serves emotional needs in some people, including you.
So, what do you think is behind the Hindu faith? There have been Hindus who have died rather than convert to Islam so they must believe their religion is correct every bit as passionately as you do.
