A church had always seemed to have an issue about a certain prayer.

...They would argue about whether they were supposed to stand during this prayer or kneel during it. A younger parishioner approached the head of the church and asked him about it.

Young Man: We always seem to argue about what to do during this prayer. Surely, scripture will tell us about our traditions involving this prayer. Does the scripture tell us it's the tradition to kneel during the prayer?

Leader: No, it doesn't say it anywhere that we should kneel.

Young Man: Ah, then it surely says the traditions is we are meant to stand during the prayer. Thank you.

Leader: Well, actually, no it doesn't say that is the tradition, either.

Young Man: But, there must be an answer. All we do, lately, is argue about what to do during the prayer.

Leader: Ah, now THAT'S the tradition.
