today as I was buying coffee at the stand -- on my way back to the mosque to pick up Dad -- the guy who originally saw me and said he knew me from the internet saw me waiting outside the crowd by the coffee hut. He signaled with his arm and words for me to come to the front of the line saying "Arab's first."
Then I joked with the guy inside saying: "Half a cup with one spoon of sugar and two spoons of cream." Then I told the guy (who signaled to me) "I'm teaching them English here."
One guy took off in a huff saying some stuff, I'm not sure what.
Then this guy said "The Arabs are the worst people in the world."
I said, "I'm one of you."
He then, in front of everyone asked me: "Are you a Christian?"
I said. "Yes."
He didn't seem to know how to respond. I just said. "I love you." He said (I think) "I love you too."
