Kinda interesting. There are so many ways to pray. King David used to strip his clothes off and dance. (For good reason I do not do that). My dear friend prays with his eyes open and paces. My granddaughter lies flat on the ground on the ground. Isn't it all communication between you and God the Father? I pray out loud, I pray silently, I pray in song, I pray without ceasing. Why would anyone presume to tell me how to pray?

No officer, really, I was just exercising my First Amendment right.

Because there are busy bodies who believe that you must reach specific spiritual milestones in order for your prayers to be heard by God. You must be a specific type of Christian, other wise your prayers are a waste of air, according to the posted article. It's that judgementalism that causes more harm than good.

Some people like to tell others what to do, control thing sort of.
