| Regarding Buddhist Prayer Shawls
As we saw in another thread, both the Memphis Mayor Pro tem and the Shelby County Mayor met with the Dali Lama and, according to pictures and reports, exchanged prayer shawls or scarves with him as a sign of honor.
I don't know the spiritual condition of either men at issue, but my question is this: if I as a believer were in a public position such as that, what should my reaction be to donning something like a prayer scarf or shawl in honor of a man from a worldly religion? What implications would my being an elected official have on the situation?
