Mr. Hurla:
Contrarian, Bill Mason, Lansing here. Responding to your post.
Tried to do this by private message to preclude continuing or startin a row. But, left something out and message did not transmit.
2 comments if I may:
I have no objection to a voluntary individual or team prayer in the privacy of the locker room. Do object to non voluntary prayer, or public prayer in the gym or on the mats. Question: If everyone else does the prayer in the locker room--as you say- why do you have to do your's on the mats?
Do not understand your statement about "tugging and jerking", "crap", and "this is a family forum". Tugging and jerking was not a sexual inference. I was using fishing as an analogy of how some people are like the fish: they take the bait, and when hooked, they tug and jerk and fight the line and the rod. There are three pleasures to fishing: getting a fish to bite, setting the hook, playing the fish. Landing the fish is anti-climatic. Lots of fish out there. If you did not get this you must be slow on the uptake--or you are a fish.
