Myself, I think its a scary demonstration of groupthink and the powerful techniques of brainwashing, but I have heard some leftists refer to it as "beautiful"?
Even when I knew nothing of the savagery of Islam, and the importance of their groupthink gimmicks, I still thought the whole Islamic sea or arsss to be disgusting, albeit, without much further thought.

How else can the moon god enter the faithful.
Women are not allowed in the mosque right?
Maybe moon god gets upset at dead ends.
It is all silly!

Prayer is the elevation of the mind and heart to God:
+ In praise of his glory
+ In petition for some desired good
+ In thanksgiving for a good received
+ In intercession for others before God
"For me, prayer is a surge of the heart; it is a simple look turned toward heaven, it is a cry of recognition and of love, embracing both trial and joy." (St. Thérèse of Lisieux)
"Prayer is the raising of one's mind and heart to God or the requesting of good things from God." (St. John Damascene)
But when we pray, do we speak from the height of our pride and will, or "out of the depths" of a humble and contrite heart? (Psalm 130:1)
He who humbles himself will be exalted; humility is the foundation of prayer. Only when we humbly acknowledge that "we do not know how to pray as we ought," are we ready to receive freely the gift of prayer. "Man is a beggar before God."
With love in Christ.
