Yes, the servants of Common Sense.

Anyway I dont really understand how u showed him he's wrong about Islam
You might call him ignorant but he is actually very correct on what he posted. While not everything in religion is bad (far from), what he said covers up a pretty large portion of the religions we have today and how they work, specially christianity and islam.

You quoting verses from the Quran doesnt really help either.

look dude, when you don't know anything about Islam don't say "Islam is this... Islam is that"

let me tell you about history of Islam.. summarized:
an illiterate man in a village that worships stones and wood, fight each other, starts wars that lasts for 40 years over goats and camels, the illiterate gathers people for he has a new religion, they fight him, he doesn't fight back, he goes to another city, they fight him, he fights back, he wins, then other people fight him, he fights back, he wins, he dies, people who followed him formed the biggest country at that time, they would've been able to lead the world to an early renaissance if it wasn't for the wars that people kept starting against them.

that illiterate man says:"Asking for knowledge is a duty on every Muslim and every Muslima (female Muslim)"

now tell me that Islam is repressive religion that is designed to keep people dumb, keep talking crap.
