Wailing Wall Tweet Prayers

It used to be you had to go to the Wailing Wall to pray in person, and slide your prayer request into one of the cracks in the wall. No longer content to merely fax or e-mail their prayers, their tweets can be taken by Alon Nil to the Kotel. He is looking for an assistant to help handle the demand.

you learn and grow from your beliefs in direct proportion to the effort you expend trying to explore them. this is definitely the 'let's not and say we did' approach to their religion. even 5 minutes of prayer and introspection trumps texting

1 point if you go to the wall in person but only 1/4 point for a tweet.
