Whoa, whoa, whoa. People are struggling to feed themselves all over the world. I can walk less than five hundred metres from my house on any given night and probably run into someone going hungry. And praying five times a day does not slow productivity. They just do things differently. On a side note, Muhummad, according to their stories, originally thought praying twenty times a day would be a better idea. Apparently, when he was visited by him in a dream, Moses said something along the lines of "Ok, let's not get carried away here, people have other things to do, how about five times a day?". They pray so often, to ensure that God is always first and foremost in their minds. It's a bit like wearing a WWJD (What Would Jesus Do?) bracelet. It's not just Islamist countries restricting the internet, the Australian government is planning to restrict content regarding suicide, pornography, etc. Basically, content that goes against christian ethos.
