What is yuh role in de meeting?  What is the goal of these meetings?

It songin like if is a meeting about practical things, task delegation an so on, then it have some real lazy-*ss people in dey if they insist on invokin a supreme being.  

If is a gov't meeting and Manning chairin it, then yuh go hadda expect dat.  :beermug:

And, well, if is a church meeting, then ah eh feel we could help yuh either!  :devil:

Is the discussion about higher power etc part of the meeting or is that just the meeting going off track?

If it is just the meeting going off track then tell them you respect their beliefs, but they are not your own, so can we please stick to the issues at hand. If the talk about higher power etc is actually an important part of the meetings then resign from the committe, or listen to what they say, but when they ask you what you think, tell them is not your beliefs and that you are unwilling to voice an opinion for fear of offending anyone.....

Wait on second thought that line don't sound like you at all. Just do what you would do here, buss some cuss tell them haul they arse and they dont know what they talking about.  :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

On more serious note, thats how I get rid of the Mormons and Jehovah witnesses who starting to come around again now that the snow melted. I tell them that I am a non-practicing catholic, and while I have some serious issues with some of the practices of my church, I dont feel like entertaining anyone elses' religious beliefs at the moment.

sounds like you have some real non-persistant jehovah witnesses up in your parts.. in trinidad, that would be a sure fire invitation for them to force the issue and also to come back every weekend.

usually the best way is to pick a day when yuh have some patience, invite them inside, offer dem some refreshments, put them to sit down... then take ah full turn in dey ass... bombard them with all yuh questions and yuh serious issues, press dem fuh answers and explanations and stretch dem to de limit..

they doh come back after that, trust meh.

Quote yourself ... i.e.

...  as well as your superstitious beliefs in some pie in de sky god dat is a mythical figure....


This man explains why I feel the way I feel about God on the whole....a great read.  I have put in bold what I agree with!

Good Book:  What I learned from reading the entire Bible.
By David Plotz


....churches are not the place for me!  Temples, Mosques, Mandirs..all de same..places of mythology and fallacies.

... yes ah some misguided frens who superstitious and beleive in mythological God and ting.

and yuh right we does agree on many things, but NONE ah dem is my spiritual guide, my mentor (what de f**k does dat conotate...MENTOR) and me eh go tuh hear none ah dem preach fuh 20 damn years.

Truth be told, if my frens and dem preaching ting me eh agree with, we go remain frens but ah finding anodder church.

Dat go straighten dem out so fass, dey go appoint you Chair in no time.

Jokes, aside why do you care? Is it interfering with your ability to be involved in the meetings or fulfil your duties on the committe? If yes then you can choose to resign or if no don't allow your or their personal beliefs interfere with the getting the job done.

Is it absolutely necessary for you to be on the committee ?
If yes, then I think you should add your 2 cents in the discussion. I'm sure the discussions/conversations towards higher power and spirituality is a debatable one. Also, you seemed to hold your own in here with much interference by the believers and the chupid legal Canadians who always feel it necessary to 'defend' their beliefs.

Do ya ting man....ah have faith in ya :beermug:
