Ron can't seem to understand that this statement is something that a Muslim
or a Mormon or a Hindu could say verbatim as "proof" of the truth of their
religions.  I would ask him to read it again, imagining that it is something
that a believer of another religion is saying to him.  Then I would like for
him to tell us how he would "refute" this statement to show the Muslim or
Mormon or Hindu that it is a fallacious argument.

RON
So now we are not discussing whether God exists, but which religion is 
the true religion? This is at least a step forward.

CREA
    Don't flatter yourself.  "Religion" is a term that does not, by itself,
require the existence of a Creator Deity.  Look at Theravada Buddhism or
Jainism.

RON
You are quite right! I stand corrected. Atheism, according to the true 
meaning of the word is in fact a religion. Let me rephrase that: Now we 
are discussing, not whether God exists, but which god is the true God.
