...young man, Jamal (Dev Patel), has miraculously, or suspiciously, spanned those two worlds. A tea server, or chai wallah, for a telephone marketing company, he has won a fortune on the Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.

...acknowledgment of common "Judeo-Christian-Islamic" roots, even if the Vatican sees the story of salvation beginning with the Old Testament and ending with Christ's resurrection. Stretching Catholicism's historical lineage forward might be more fruit than this Vatican summit could produce. But at least there will be tea...
