I respect this guy's right to pray, but I don't think a person has the right to delay takeoff, even for two minutes. He has the right to pray, but all of the passengers and flight crew have the right not to be disrupted due to his praying. Why couldn't he pray while he was waiting to board the plane, or pray on the plane from his seat?

Also, if he holds up the flight for two minutes, isn't that potentially holding up not just his flight, but all the other flights in line behind that flight?
