The arrogance and lack of self recognition continues.
Show me a snarky comment I made on this thread.
BTW, my claim is about your ENTIRE posting history - not just this thread.
“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.” and Amen!
...and who is a Jew?

Please tell me you don’t live in Tzfat.
No, but one of my favorite places on earth.
He can pray without strapping stuff to his head on an airliner. That’s just ignorant.
Try reading the rest of the thread before making a complete ass of yourself at the very end of it.
Or if not the thread, at the very least the Bible itself, at Deuteronomy 6:8.
What’s next? Confiscating rosary beads from habit-clad nuns?
Try reading up on an incident called 9/11. There are a lot of you 9/10 folks in the world. Pardon the rest of the world for being suspicious when a guy starts strapping things to his body on an airliner. I know you 9/10 people think that is harmless but the rest of us think it is idiotic, even if you are a member of a weird cult that requires you to so such stuff to appease your g_d.
