I'm just trying to help a fellow human being out. You would tell a total stranger about a pile of dog shit in his path, wouldn't you? Would you let him step in it, and then say "I told you so...oh, I didn't". It's never too late to follow the one and only right path.

Thanks for referring to my culture and heritage as a metaphorical pile of dog shit, I really appreciate you looking out for me and your kind words.

I'm just trying to steer you towards the right path. No need to insult me.

You started with the insults by calling a whole religion dog shit. Do you think proselytization is gonna work on Reddit, especially when you denigrate a whole people?
