Yup. And even funnier is that Jesus said those who make a public spectacle of prayer are "hypocrites" and will "have no rewards." The Bible pointedly tells Christians many many times to explicitly not make a show of prayer.

"But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you."

"Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven."

"And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward."

"And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words."

"For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted."

"Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven."[/i][/quote][/quote]
