Some people would say that the Jews being overachiever in terms or relativity to prayer, a set code which they live by isn't really true but overstating. In my opinion I do think that sometimes in life there are some principles we live by that tend to bring the right endeavor to our day to day effort at achieving. I think prayer and a sense and deed of righteousness sometimes really works in life.
It's an amazing combo there, I must say I love James's accent Brian's seems to have been modified by staying in Isreal
