He could be a Lebanese Scientologist of Christian background. I knew a
Lebanese couple who ran a restaurant called the El Morocco and they
were Jehovah's Witnesses.

I met a Chinese fellow from Taiwan whose parents were devout Shinto.
Most pizzerias in Ottawa are owned by Lebanese, except in the Italian
quarter, obviously.
