Philipinas 2:10 That in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those that are in heaven, on earth, and under the earth:

*So, every time you are posting something that cites Jesus; every time you pray and that prayer includes "Jesus" you genuflect (what do you do when you are already kneeling in prayer?); every time you speak the name Jesus, you genuflect?

Color me skeptical :)

When I speak or think the name of Jesus, I instinctively bow my head because I was taught to do that as a little girl. I'm sure there are times when I have failed to do it. I don't see how that is relevant, as I was referring to conducting oneself in Church.

I do not genuflect every time I speak the name of Jesus. I genuflect evertime I enter the Church and take my seat at a pew, always when I'm in front of the Altar or pass by the Altar, and always during the "I am not worthy to receive you, but just say the word and my soul shall be healed."

Listen, I'm willing to concede you know everything, and I know nothing except histrionics, if it just ends this confab here and now.
