So having some muscle works some time...<br /><br />My answer to this nasty lady is &quot;Tell that to the Devil when you meet him, ha ha ha &quot;Abu Abdullahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03505978056421232965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32212161.post-45454446237163166892009-11-18T12:07:19.480-05:002009-11-18T12:07:19.480-05:00Dang, and at an interfaith event too. What chutzpah! Your response was perfect, though, exactly how Muslims should act: calm, non-judgemental, and sincere, even if we feel like telling someone off.Banana Annehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05199135544354929727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32212161.post-52345353115976767482009-11-16T14:09:53.598-05:002009-11-16T14:09:53.598-05:00After that, I don&#39;t think I would have thought about the other person&#39;s feelings and would say exactly what I felt.
