Even the camel culture christian missionary dudes was saying Somalis were kind and welcoming people and that he made many friends through us. It makes it all the more nefarious and bad spirited to exploit our open and welcoming nature to push an underhanded christian missionary agenda
Another thing i found funny about those colonial quotes they show a continuation as well, like Africans and Indians were all white worshiper and Somalis are not.
I remember another qoute someone posted on this forum of a Ugandan colonial subject of British admonishing Somalis for not loving white people, someone shared on this forum not to long ago.
Look at this, made me laugh: And also to him our bad quality is that we are ''Muhammadans''(Muslims)'' and that we never left our religion in spite of our frequent contacts with Europeans
