That argument works for those of us who have accepted that "God" is vulnerable to reason (that we can penetrate his supposed omniscience with rationality), but it won't work for anyone who still buys, even in part, the theist position. So religions like Christianity have no problem building in ideas like "God demands prayer and gratitude".
This whole "permeable to reason" thing seems to me like the primary hurdle to helping people overcome religious superstition.
