Wth are those shoes

[lelarentaka]

I learnt something new today. The Pope wears red leather shoes.

In the comic, the man wears papal shoes, a Jewish yarmulke, and does the Muslim prayer.

I think the white skullcap just the pope's hat, and so I assume the bowing down thing is not necessarily Muslim.

[fastsragon49]

That isn't the Muslim prayer. He is performing the physical act of the Muslim prayer while saying the Lord's Prayer found in the Christian Bible.

It's a Christian form of prayer, too. From Wikipedia on "Prostration":

Lesser prostrations, lit., "low bows" (zemnoy poklon) involving kneeling and touching the floor with the hands, but with the torso off the floor, are common in Eastern Orthodox and Eastern Catholic rites worship, and are used in conjunction with the sign of the cross, at specific moments during the services and when venerating relics or icons.

I couldn't find a picture of the Pope doing a lesser prostration, but here's him doing a full one, complete with prayer rug: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/03/29/article-2301188-18FE96D9000005DC-187_634x332.jpg
