its easy

never saw a prot genuflect

never saw a prot kneel in prayer

never saw a prot bow their head in respect of any other religion or religious figure

they like to hold hands when they pray together

they like to “do fellowship” (whatever the heck that is) on the Lord’s Day

they like to sit at home on the Lord’s Day and ‘church themselves’ where I’m sure they are on their knees, heads bowed in silent prayer during each and every commercial break.

like I said prots are a stiff necked people like the Isrealites and some of the same stuff is coming round to them

For the Greater Glory of God

You really need to get out more in that case.

I've seen Christians (those people you call protestants) kneel, genuflect, and even do a ballroom dance or two.

I do not bow my head in respect to any other religion or religious figure. Would you bow your head to an Imam? A Satanist?

Fellowship on the Lord's Day is going to church and worshipping with fellow believers.

Some interesting stats on evangelicals and catholics oer Pew. http://religions.pewforum.org/comparisons#

Believe in God; absolute certainty: evangelicals, 90%; catholics 72%

Importance of religion in one's life: Very important: evangelicals 79%; catholics, 56%

Evangelicals attend church on a weekly basis if not more. That's better than most catholics per Pew. Evangelicals 58% attend more than once a week or once a week; catholics 43%.

Evangelicals pray more frequently daily than catholics...78% to 58%

Evangelicals, 59% believe the Word of God is literally true word for word; catholics 23%.

This one isn't good for either evangelicals or catholics though it is better for evangelicals...my religion is the one true faith leading to eternal life...evangelicals 36%, catholics 16%.

Many religions can lead to eternal life...evangelicals 57%, catholics 79%

Really?

Why would they genuflect?

We kneel. That’s Biblical.

Holding hands you object to for some reason?

Fellowship. Something Christians have done since at least the earliest days of the church - “42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.”

Best.
