Tribalistic, elitist and lacking in any empathy. They look down on their own for even the slightest variation, so you can only imagine how they really feel about us infidels. And before anyone accuses me of making a "bigoted" statement, try living among them as my family has and see how fun it is to be treated like third-class citizens.
