We all know that they can pray any time they want, or read lines of scripture, or contemplate how fucking holy they are. This can be done while waiting for the meeting to start, each in their own little heads.

But that would not show the rest of the world, and I suppose God too, just how devout they are. If it isn't making a public spectacle, it doesn't really count. (Speaking of that, maybe they need a little refresher course on scripture.)
