>Here's what I cannot forget: The ride from Jordan to Baghdad took 16 hours through the desert. Why? because my taxi driver kept asking me if I would mind if we stop for a prayer. I watched this man get out of the car, wash himself clean, spread a rug on the dirt, and begin to pray, to kneel, to beg god to hear him, to forgive him, to bless him. I was truly humbled to see such devotion, such ritual repeated every few hours, tireless, unrelenting, and unwavering in himself, and in his faith.

...I can just see a New York cabby tell a fare on his way to Brooklyn that they have to pull into a church cause needs to ask forgiveness.
