I am particularly noticing a trend among muslims during my arguments. They bring some bizarre facts in the conversation which I think only came to their minds from Friday Sermons at the mosque. When I ask them if their sources are muslims without any valid source, they keep quiet. For example this is my conversation with my brother about call of prayer using loud speakers in Dearborn, MI.
Him: When the case went to the court, (about azaan in loud speaker in Dearborn) he asked for a sample of it. After hearing the sample, he said, it was the best thing he ever heard in his entire life, much more soothing then church bells or any other thing.
Me: WTF? What is the source of your information? A mosque?
Him: (silent..

Some muslim girl: American history is full of muslim scientists.
Me: What history book are you reading? Where did you read American history?
Her (silent)

Some muslim guy: Christmas has pagan roots. Not part of Christianity.
Me: Hajj has pagan roots. Lets stop doing that first.
Him: Hajj have no pagan roots, Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH) built the Kabbah which is well documented then some rumors and false information you learned from internet.. Hajj was started after Kabbah was built..
Me: only muslim sources claims it has abrahamic roots. No other abrahamic religious sources or any other third party sources prove that. But even islamic sources tell that pagans used to do hajj completely naked.
Him: Jewish and Christian even Zoroastrianism sources confirm that it was built by Ibraham (PBUH) and his followers visited it each year.. pagans found it to be spiritual so they started visiting it too.. but the actual start was from followers of Prophet Ibraham (PBUH)..
Me: Point me to the Jewish and Zoroastrian sources. Thank you!
Him: I am not aware of online resources to point out.. however best would be put aside few thousand dollars and few months, visit some countries and talk to people, trust me everyone loves to talk about their religion & background..
Here is some common sense how can pagan start when it was not even built..
Me: I have provided valid sources for all my claims. Your claims seems fabricated. Not by you but some muslims who create stories and make it part of friday sermon. They are absolutely false!
Him: (Silent)
