Oh but they do indeed have a great deal to do with truth of a religion's claims. Those who act as if they can violate their faith's tenets with impunity have no faith. Those who commit attrocities in the name of their faith, have no faith. Those who allow these miscreants to violate the tenets of their faith, have no faith.
Whether those people have faith or don't have faith in their particular religion still has no bearing on the truth of the religion. To use an analogy, I can believe and behave as though the US Constitution didn't exist; however, my behavior and belief would not invalidate the existence and legal authority of the Constitution.
If God is infinite, all-encompassing, omnisicent and omnipotent, does it not then stand to reason that there are an infinite number of paths to God?
If God is omnipotent (as you gave in your argument), then God is able to communicate His desires to His creation. And if God has communicated his desires to be A, but not B or C, we cannot then say that B or C is valid, because God has stated as much. Therefore, no, your argument does not stand to reason.
