I've heard "Our Father in Heaven" or something to that effect. Of course, that's also how the original Greek text did it. The whole "who art" part was an artifact of the Latin translation. -- "There's no such thing as 'cool'. Everyone's just a big dork or nerd, you just have to find people who are dorky the same way you are." - overheard ICQ: 18656696 AIM Screen-Name: NikTaylor42
