A friend of mine, and his family are believers in the Baha'i Faith.

This lead to an interesting story that occured a few years past:

My friend's older brother was a UC Berkeley student at the time, and was going to have a large group of students over at the family house (a large house).

However, his parents were also hosting a large group of Baha'i monks (or whatever the equivalent is) from somewhere in the East at the same time.

So a large group of Cal students collide with a large group of Baha'i monks... and the result?

They ordered Chinese for all, and apparently had a great time.

This significantly increased my appreciation of members of that faith.
