just book the conference room for a "conference call" or something. then post a large cock on the wall of your cube and worship it.

you probably have done this anyway, which is why your co-workers feel they have to have this bible study to cleanse their souls.

I don't get this holy crusade over the The Bible, its a fiction novel, and most of it is unsubstantiated crap anyway, i'm tired of Christians freaking out over it. Guess since the Church decided to play nice they have to do something to keep busy. Why can't I just feel guilty like any other normal Catholic and not have to deal with this crusading b.s.

No problems here.

Get yer church on all you want, as long as it's not interfering with someone else's duties. Those duties do not include nosily watching their every move and later documenting it.

I say you call in the ACLU and push the crap out of it. I mean, you've got nothing better to do and they don't either. :roll:

For me, it'd be that religion is discussed at work. Period. If they want to discuss their religious beliefs, then they can do it at home or at church following mass.


And if they changed 'religious beliefs' to 'gay-ness' and suggested that you keep it where it belongs (i.e. in the closet at home), how would you react? Many millions of people feel as strongly about their religious beliefs as you do about your sexuality, and your perception of what they might do if you wanted to hold a gay/lesbian support group in that same room at that same time doesn't necessarily fly.

You sound like you resent this and feel uncomfortable that people are essentially worshipping a faith that doesn't agree with your lifestyle, and doing it right in front of you (gasp!). Religion is something that governs many people's entire lives, and for you to ask them to only practice it at specific times is really akin to them asking you to only be gay when they arent around (and I dont mean act gay, I mean be gay).

I also understand that there are plenty of superficial, hypocritical 'Christians' who will spend this hour at their job in bible study and then devote exactly zero minutes to their faith the rest of the week. But you have to take the good with the not-so-good in our society. No reason why they shouldn't get to have these meetings (I assume they are on lunch break).

Chris, Im totally on board with how you live your life, and I am not religious in the least, but I also have tons of respect for people that are deeply religious. Taken at face value, this situation you describe doesn't sound like a problem. Of course, if these people were total douchebags during the remainder of the work day, it would stick in my craw as well. Tough situation.

But it could be bad in a work environment if a supervisor was attending such a meeting, and playing favorites with employees based on attendance. It just seems rife with potential trouble to hold personal meetings such as this in a workplace.

Not offended. Valid suggestion that many others pursue. I mean, you are the one who says he's offended.

That's against the law, however.

The closet-case and the goth-punk that led my high-school's participation in time-out (twice a month, you got to leave school after fifth period to go to a non-denominational church, eat pizza, and talk about Jesus, and stuff).
