In countries with a Christian background we have an expression (or
two) for what you are doing. We refer to it as 'preaching to the
converted' or 'preaching to the choir'. I am sure that there would be
an equivalent phrase in use in Muslim based countries.

While I am proceeding on the 'belief' pathway (I am trying to tread
carefully but please forgive me if I tread on ant toes), It is
interesting for the non-believers perspective (That windoze is the
most/only . . . . .) to see the behavior of those who clink to their
belief in the face of contrary evidence (GUI, software, bling etc...).

Keep up the proselytizing
