89. I've lived all over and experienced all sorts of tradition.
I'm currently Catholic, though I don't recite prayer before each meal. I've sat through Jewish, Islamic, and other worship services. I've been to Taoist and Buddhist temples.

I'm happy with following the customs of whomever I am with. If they want to recite a prayer or meditation, I'm happy with that. Especially if I am in their own house. If in my own home, I would expect that people would not criticize how I go about serving dinner. (No prayer.) If someone requested prayer in my own household, I would allow them to lead it.

I'm generally a people pleaser, though. :)
