When someone says "Let's pray," what are you thinking of? Only those who 'letting' '?

I am usually waiting for the food to be served, the funeral to be over, or the wedding to begin when I hear that. And my atheism does not give me a right to interrupt the spiritual rituals of other people.

Atheism is what is right for me, but that does not make it right for every one.

I don't know where you live, but I am an American and all the people I have ever known well have had the right to believe whatever they choose about the existence of god(s) and how to worship them or not worship them.

It is not a perfect place to live, but it is as fair as can be when you add all our different personalities to the mix. No system can please all the people.

Let's go to the store, I want to buy some Ice Cream

Let's have hamburgers for dinner

lets not get caught up in narrow minded approaches to language, shall we

When I hear someone say "Let's pray", I wait for the person who said it to begin their prayer and listen to it.

If you are an atheist, you don't need to "speak up" at all, or say "I don't want to". What do you want to hang around for? Ever hear of the expression "just walk away"? That would be a good time to do so.

As long as they realize that they are praying to me, I have no objections.
