Reply #68: I once had a co-worker who always said silent grace before meals.... [View All]

[mitchum]

bowing his head, crossing himself, etc...(we were on a six month travelling project and spent a lot of time together) After awhile he noticed that I didn't say grace and asked me why. I replied that I was an atheist, but out of respect for his beliefs that I did not eat or drink while he was going through his ritual. He said that I was wrong to be atheist. I then asked him if he said grace when he went out to dinner with his mistress (he was married to an unsuspecting wife) He replied that my question was unfair. Sure.
