How so?

That was when we "Got our asses kicked in line", so to speak.

Did I miss something? We were talking about 'crossing the line' of a closed forum regarding a manner of worship that is (erroneously) associated with Muslim prayer.

You mentioned that this manner, practiced by the eastern Orthodox at Great Lent, is Judaic in origin to which both of us (Kolo and I) concented to be a possibility. To which you add biblical reference of Genesis 32:24 which says:

"So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak."

I don't see any connection in anything that you referenced or mentioned to the manner of worship we spoke of, or any clarification, let alone proof, of its origin.

Thanks for your participation, I think this discussion is closed.
