I don't really feel there's anything wrong with saying a prayer in a group outloud. It may make some people uncomfortable, but I believe that's their problem. As I said, I'm not really persecuted so or oppressed so I've already answered the OP and spent enough energy on the topic. If we'd like to discuss the differences between freedom of expression and limiting other's speech or one person's belief being a harassment to another's rights then I'll take it up again when I have more time in another thread. But, to the OP. US Christians can be targeted, but as they're the majority, and very privileged, unlikely to have any really deserving oppression and hardships due to their beliefs.

Huddle does not mean prayer circle.  It didn't fifteen years ago and it doesn't now.

Quote:hud·dle
[ˈhədl]


VERB

  1. crowd together; nestle closely.

[size=undefined]NOUN

  1. a crowded or confused mass of people or things.
