    Good question. I guess cause humans are a bunch of weirdo s. I cant imagine being from another planet and seeing this ritual and trying to dispher its meaning. It looks ridiculous for one thing and probably has an even more idiotic reasoning behind why its done in the first place as far as im concerned.

    Well, I know the answer and methink you at least suspect. It is homage to the powers that be. Pretty revealing of who runs the world.

    I read that in the distant past that people used to kiss his feet. Contrast the popes to Peter.

    (Acts 10:26) But Peter lifted him up, saying: “Rise; I too am just a man.”
