Did you see the peculiar story recently about a customer in a Chinese restaurant who made a big scene demanding his money back after he spotted a small statue of Buddha (in the Chinese vein, crap de chine as it’s known)? His claim was that as a Christian, his mellows were irreparably harshed by the mere glimpse of a plastic image of the Buddha, and he should not have to pay for his meal.
I wonder how often he’s tried that. The good news is that the proprietors of the Chinese restaurant were having none of it. For one thing, there’s a non-trivial chance that they were Christians themselves.
