You are clueless. Jews do not kneel when praying. As far as England, they have a state church. All monarchies have state religions. WE, thank God and our Constitution, do not. From what I've seen of Muslims, Buddhists, Shintos, etc., they don't kneel. They prostrate themselves.

BktBallRef:

When you are asked to kneel in prayer, that makes it a little different than saying, "Let us pray, each in his or her own way". It was only recently that invocations before football games mentioned Jesus, and public shools were told to cease. I'll bet this one did too. You Christians, for the most part, are totally insensitive to other faiths in public prayer situations.

Maybe if you had someone else's beliefs shoved down your throat constantly, you'd be a little sensitive too. It wasn't too long ago that many areas, including our nation's capitol, had "Blue Laws", whereby most businesses HAD to be closed on Sundays.

I'll match my understanding of the Constitution against yours any time.
