He mostly took me by surprise. It’s something nobody sane would ever say in Europe.
Later during that trip, I had another surreal exchange in a little nowhere place. We were stopped in the centre of a little village, wondering where we could find some kind of restaurant, but the place was utterly empty. Presumably there might have been some kind of mall or something in the area, but we hadn’t spotted it.
Anyway a local helpfully came and told us that he had no idea where a restaurant was, but maybe there was one at some other village 30 km away. And also were we Christians?
Um, what?
For then we shall meet again in heaven.
So I mumbled something along the lines that the whole Christian thing wasn’t really all that hot in Europe any longer, and wished him luck with his heavenly endeavours, and we got the fuck out of there.
I met a few of those guys, but that one was the weirdest.
