Sorry for the error...
Inserted: <he believed>
"The logic in the statement yields nothing less than the proposition of the possible inferiority of the reader. To process the logic further, at most, only one religion can be all true. The reader is then faced with the proposition that the author would choose for himself the religion that <he believed> was all true. If the reader's religion is different from the author's religion, then the reader has just been told that his religion is not all true. Only a religion that is all true can be Truth. Therefore, any religion that is not all true is not Truth. The author has, in effect, made the statement that his religion is the only true religion and that all other religions are not true religions."
