When Middle Eastern people who are unfamiliar with each other meet, one of the first things that happens is there is a dance to see what religion each is. Names are vetted, the country you are from, your accent, hometown. All of that stuff. Then you are assigned a bias based upon all of that. That's if you started out saying Salam Alechem. If not, it goes much quicker. I've seen it really get drawn out when a person has a name that is ambiguous and is from a town that had mixed religions living there. It could be a 15-minute dance without resolution if someone is being cautious. In Beirut for the past 45-years, taxi drivers pretty much only take passengers of the same religion as them. It wasn't that way before the mid-70's civil war. As bad as it is in the US with the divide between people, it could be a whole lot worse. I see I used the word "civil war." That's not what I was alluding to. I was alluding to divisions amongst people that are so extreme that they don't trade, talk, or have anything to do with each other.
