A rabbi and an Imam were discussing the best positions for prayer on a Jerusalem street, while a telephone repairman worked nearby. "Standing with your feet together and silent devotion, swaying back and forth is definitely the best way to pray," said that rabbi.
"No," said the Imam. "You are wrong. I get the best results lying down on the floor with my hands outstretched."
“I’m not so sure about that” replied the rabbi.
“You’re both wrong,” chimed in the Israeli repairman suddenly. “I do my best praying when I am hanging upside down from this telephone pole."
