Praying towards the Sun


From Yahoo News:
This morning, Jews all across the world recited the Birkat Hakhama prayer at sunrise. Birkat Hakhama is said as the sun comes up to mark what according to Jewish tradition is the sun's return to its position at the moment that the universe was created 5,769 years ago. It returns to the spot once every 28 years.

Makes me wonder how many folks who profess creationism know about this?
