What would a believer think about religion if he has grown up on an isolated island and met the religion at?

Question

his mature age? Would he believe it or would he think that it was just a myth?

Answer 1

It all depends on the individual and their past experiences.

Answer 2

What a person believes is based on a few simple things:

A - His willingness to examine his own beliefs.
B - The credibility he grants the source of the info (while he is being taught),
C - His level of understanding of evidence and critical thought,

This is true for beliefs about politics, relationships, religion, the paranormal, and even science. The reason most people hold religious beliefs based on geography and parental beliefs -- instead of a consistent cross-section of religious beliefs regardless of locale -- is because most people are taught religion when they are young, and still very credulous of their parents and peers.

A person on an isolated island would start believing in a new religion he encountered if he was both willing to examine his own beliefs, and either the source were very believable or his critical thinking skills weren't challenged.

Although, examining your question, you asked what a *believer* would think about a religion he met. I'm not sure but ... perhaps you meant a *non*-believer?
