Religious affiliation doesn't have anything to do with it. Anyone in any religion seeking the spirit will encounter it. Religious institutions are largely evolutionary and more or less human.
If and when you stop fighting against God and invite him into your life then you will understand.
Yes.
My [religion] says other religions are wrong.
Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
There are exceptions.
Exodus 7:11 Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.(So far I haven't seen you do anything that people of other religions haven't done. You've done nothing to separate yourself from them. Maybe one day you will surprise me.)

Once I was born of the spirit, I had an entirely different understanding. I was alone and completely outside of religion.
People of every religion do not have THE SON who came into the worldPeople of every religion say their God did things that proved their religion was correct.

What are they going to do on the day that they come face to face with GODNo, they have other things, which they all believe proves that their religion is the correct one.
You still haven't shown me anything that proves that Christianity is true while others aren't.

GOD, by sending HIS SON into the world, shut up the mouths of every other lying spirit who suggest "another way"

You are projecting your own mental processes onto me. What happened to me changed my life, i have grown in understanding and awareness of this same spirit. It was like Saul before I even knew the story of Saul.Once you were born of the spirit, you had a vested interest in holding that belief. It's no different to what you said before. If you decide that you want to believe, you'll find a way to get yourself to believe.

But I guess in your case what you are saying is that you are Atheist simply because you decided to be, not because it's wise or logical.
Irrelevant?Irrelevant.
You can claim all you want that your religion makes as many claims as you want that you allege that it is true, but people of every religion also make many claims that they allege proves their religion to be true.
You still haven't shown me anything that Christianity has that other religions don't. Sure, there are differences in details, but the main things that you have in your faith are present in many other faiths as well. Miracles, deities, amazing events, divinely inspired books, it's all there.
