The next day I just wanted to chill out so I headed to my fav cafe in Kensington for a coffee or three & lunch. Did a bit of window shopping, then headed back to the hotel.
While I waited (a very long time) to leave for my trip to Scotland, I had another (very long) chat with another guy at the hotel reception. This guy is also a strict Muslim & we had a fascinating discussion about religion & politics. His extreme perspectives (even agreed that stoning is a viable option for controlling the ‘crime’ of adultery) were interesting, to say the least. I also asked him to define the key differences between Islam, Judaism & Christianity. Every point he made I successfully rebutted, stating that all 3 monotheistic religions have common fundamentals. He referred me to his mukti for further discussion – I said I’d let him know. I debated quite a bit with him & got a better understanding of the (fundamental) Muslim mindset.
