[quote=Anonymous]As a non-Catholic affiliated with a Catholic school, I think it's important to show respect for their tradition. The way I look at it, the Catholic church is heavily subsidizing my child's education. The trade off is that they get to share their beliefs and traditions. That's the deal. Do I think that God hears me if I pray in a different position? Yes, because that's what my religion teaches, but I also think that he hears me with my head bowed and my eyes closed, so that's what I do. If I'm asked to do something that I actually don't believe in (for me, as a protestant, this would be saying a prayer to a Saint such as the "Hail Mary" rather than directly to God), then I show respect by bowing my head, but I say something else in my head, or simply wait for it to be over.
