I pray sometimes on the way to work, but some people say that it is not nice to do in public places ex. train or bus. Does it bother anyone? What do you think about it?

It makes me pleased to know that people in this country feel free enough to pray in public. As long as you're not asking me to participate, then I could care less, it is your life. Freedom is important and a lot of people have lost sight of what that word really means in this country and I am pleased to hear someone is brave enough to remind them.

It's a free country. (That's whats so great about the US). Even though I don't agree with their philosophies, I can respect them as human beings. Jesus never went around bashing people on the head for not believing the way He did. Instead he prayed for them.

i think its good that they arent ashamed. im not saying that they were but i dont think anybody should be praying to be seen because jesus said in matthew 6:5 that we should not pray like the pharisees that stand in public and pray aloud just to be seen by men. but i am not ashamed of being a christian!!! and ill pray in public, but not so people will see me...

G-d's holy church is the Jewish Synagogue. eleventh chapter of Romans twenty fifth verse I'll not have you ignorant nor conceited concerning Israel for all Israel shall be saved and not by the Gospels.Its a free gift to them for the fathers sakes. they where made enemies of the gospels for the gentiles sakes for G-D COULD HAVE MERCY ON US ALL READ IT FOR YOURSELF. being they are what are you going to do on the first sabbath in heaven. after all it is perpetual. exo 31-13-16

Never seen anyone pray in public transportation before, so can't give you any thought.

When I see someone praying I respect there commitment to their religious beliefs.
But I sometimes wonder if they are praying strictly to be seen by other men and assumed holy.

I pray too... and I don't get offended by ppl who don't... so why do they get offended?? I don't care and don't see why anyone else should. As long as they're not prancing around and chatting and making a scene I see nothing wrong with it.

We have Freedom OF Religion, not freedom FROM religion. I admire those who pray in public.

It does kind of bother me but then again as long as they aren't getting in my way or anything, it's fine with me.
