The kneeling definitely happens publicly around here

Wow, you are really SENSITIVE. Do you ever watch baseball? A lot of players, particularly Latin ones, are very demonstrative about their faith. Some do the sign of the cross at every at-bat, some make a gesture to heaven each time they get someone out. I think it's a bit ostentatious to make such religion expressions in public.

But I would never have imagined that others would take offense at it.

A lot of baseball players also spit, and many grab at their crotches at times. Now THAT offends my sensitivities.

Do you think all these practices in public should be banned? ... or just the religious ones?
