Just depends on where he's getting his influence, such as anti-Islam sites etc. If it's just society in general, imo he should be intellectually challenged in regards to his religion. He says Islam is "restrictive", but has he ever tried to find the means of understanding why something is as such?

You also talk about the cultural upbringing, it was the same for me. I diverted, especially when I was 19 I was just Muslim by title. Interestingly enough, it wasn't the negative media on Islam that made me want to know more about my identity, it was the random fascination about the idea of a single man being able to bring about a religion that is followed by billions today. This lead me to study the Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) and Islam in more detail and lead me to actually stand up and say, I am so glad I am a Muslim, how regretful that I wasted all this time diverting from such a beautful faith.
