ha ha qatarama
yes, when I first landed in the middle east (the Levant not the Gulf) I wondered why everyone was so cross, angry and shouting at each other - then my ear tuned in to how Arabic is spoken and the inflections in the language, now I don't notice it hardly at all.

Tell your son the truth - people gather to be told some stories about how the earth was made by a god using some magic. They all get quite intoxicated about the stories and how some people don't believe in this type of magic but in other magic, and everyone gets all a bit excited, especially the man telling the stories as the more effort and conviction he puts into the tales the more the people will tend to be transfixed.

Tell him one day, if he wants, when he is old enough to understand he can find out for himself and decide - but until then he shouldn't worry about it.

Peace
