Only if they are in the middle of a walkway but then I never see anyone pray in public.

It's what they've grown up with, it's their culture and we can't really take that away from them. What i do object to, is that airline (B.A. I think) stopping one of their female staff from wearing a small cross on a chain. This is just drawing more attention to Muslims wearing their barkas and it's stirring up a lot of trouble. People should be allowed to wear what they want, especially if it's for religious purposes.

No, absolutely not. No more than i would be offended by a Christian wearing a cross, carrying a bible, or praying over a meal.

Uh, no. I don't care what religion people are. If they need to observe their religious practices, that's what "freedom of religion" means, and they should be allowed to observe it.
I don't observe any religion well, religiously, and I would be very upset by someone trying to cram their religion down my throat. Just let Muslims, or anyone, observe in peace.

No. Why would this be offensive?? Please elaborate.
