You've just committed the "genetic fallacy," where one thinks that by identifying the origins of someone's beliefs it somehow counts as disproof. Where a belief in God comes from is utterly irrelevant to the TRUTH of his existence or not. One must attack the argument, not the one who offers it, if one wishes to make a contribution to the discussion.
