  I like it! Now if the man can be observed leaning at a 45 degree
angle without "visible means of support..."?

  I have no "religion" myself. But if someone else believes, it's not
a problem unless they attempt to inflect their beliefs on me.

  I have observed that literally anything one might do, from religious
observance to taking one's next breath, will be greeted with howls of
ANATHAMA! from someone, someplace on our unhappy globe. No
matter how hard you try to be innocuous, you will offend someone.
From this I deduce the obvious: "You can't please everyone, so
you'd better please yourself".

  For those offended by this attitude, I say "Tough".
