If you do decide to take follow through, take along with you a copy of the relevant pages from documents relating to Stanly Ann Dunham and Lolo Soetoro's passport applications, which were recently released to crazy birther Chis Strunk.
The docs, (available on Scribd) dating from the mid to late '60's clearly state that the son of Stanley Ann 'is an American Citizen, born in Hawaii'.

Let it go.
You can get written testimony from the delivery room doctors and nurses,he is not rational and won't change his mind. Do some research on the Dunning-Kruger Effect. This guy sounds like he's afflicted. The more you try to reason with him, the deeper he's going to dig his heels in and resist.

Yes, it does matter. Even if he throws in back in your face. Even if it doesn't change his mind in the least. It is a non-violent way to give people the chance to reflect on what they say, think, believe. Even idiots need that chance.
Hell, you already left your car with the guy. He could have put ATF in your oil if he wanted to act on his idiocy. It's obvious the gods are on your side so go for it.

People like this gentleman if not confronted with the truth feel that the whole world believes the trash they believe in. Mail him the BC.

Find another car repair place - If you live in Glendale, CA I can recommend one.

Based on his reaction, i would advise against it. The man had possession of your vehicle for a while. That means he could have your address. Not a good idea to prod a guy who's itching to blame his miserable existence on everyone else but himself. I worked insuance claims for almost 30 years. During that time I leased my vehicles and never had my car registered in my name or address. I also refused to put any identifying stickers on my bumper or windows. Not even a parking sticker for the company lot. You never know who may be angry and spot your vehicle in a mall, restaurant or market parking lot.

Even if it may not matter at that moment once you produced a copy of the birth certificate you should still show it. Of course a person like this is not going to admit he was wrong to you are anyone else publically. But, giving it to him and walking away he may open it and read it. I think what is a better approach for people like this is to ask them three questions.
I start by saying - when I was a teen and didn't want to take my medicine my mother would ask me when did I learn what was best for me and what year did I get my medical degree. I would then take the med's knowing I was not as smart as the doctor.
So let me ask you this - you know the President has the highest security clearance in the country right? Yes.
You know he has to have the codes for the nuclear bomb right? Yes.
So you knw the FBI, Secret Service, CIA and Homeland security have already checked his birth records first hand right? Yes, but.....
Then I say - when did you get your degree in criminal investigations?
