My wife works on a State Department grant to provide medical assistance to refugees. They come from a swath of the world that starts in central Africa, arches through the middle east and ends up in south Asia.
Through her I have met a number of people and I have been to a goat roast (if you have never had roasted goat, you are missing a delicacy), an Islamic call to prayer, been blessed by a Buddhist monk, attended a Burmese Christian Wedding (part of the ceremony involved the bride giving the groom a sheath for his sword – something Freudian about that) the only part we understood was the “Amens,” and I attended a celebration for the god Krishna where I had a conversation with a 10-year-old girl on why Krishna is her favorite god. She was quite knowledgeable and well-spoken.
You could say that God works in mysterious and wondrous ways or you could say that His creation, people, are utterly fascinating.
