They maintain friendships with me.
They never preach at me and accept me as I am. A lot of them will actually discuss religion with me in an open and honest exchange. (I never initiate this - I'm a guest of their country and culture and I respect that.)
Here's what's funny. An amazing amount of them sneak and eat bacon. PORK bacon. And they like beer, wine or liquor. And they usually tell me that they don't think eating pork or having a drink is a such a sin, and that it's crazy that those who emphasize that will go and blow up innocent people. The Muslim friends I have think that's the sin and they condemn terrorism as much as we do.
Can I interest you in a bridge?
Congratulations!
Can I interest you in a bridge for your mind...one with a drawbridge so that it can open up just a tad and actually see what's outside once in a while?
Don't bother responding. I've met plenty of you here...I won't engage. It's pointless.
