For example, I’m a white Jewish guy but I’ve adopted the Japanese practice of keeping dedicated house slippers at the front door.

    I was raised in an extremely conservative Southern Baptist Christian tradition, but I often recite the Hail Mary and/or the first line of the Shema (in admittedly very poor Hebrew) when I pray. There’s something about knowing that the same prayer has been prayed by millions and millions of humans through history that makes me feel more connected.

      I don’t get the hail mary. The our father would be baptist acceptable and should have been recited for longer given its in the bible specificallly.
