But I was sitting in my Modern Middle East class listening to the British guy explain how Sunni/Shi'a differences are essentially more political than religious. To compare and contrast, he brought up Protestant/Catholic differences. One example was how "the Germans didn't want to pay taxes for that church over there" (pointing out the window).
..That church over there..
This is probably the only time in my life that I'll be able to hear someone nonchalantly refer to St. Peter's as "that church over there."
