No. Not even close. I also don't practice any religion.

No. Totally different. Jay agreed to joint them for lunch. He even said
they asked if he wouldn't mind them saying a prayer. He could have left the conversation at any time. He makes it sound like they followed him and hounded him. From what I read it was not rude behavior. I find it a bit odd that some people to talk to strangers about religion, but what is rude about it? People just seem to want to be isolated and not have to deal with anyone different than they are. Clearly Jay's reaction (as others have pointed out) seem to stem more from his own issues with religions than anything the two people he met did. Makes me wonder what would happen if I (or anyone) stayed at his little hotel and he found something about us odd. What would be posted on this newsgroup the following week? "G.R.

hotel and he found something about us odd. What would be posted on this newsgroup the following week? I promise not to use real names! :-) Incredibly, we were eating brunch in Janesville, WI today when that very same beautiful blood-red Mooney came taxiing in! Staring at each other in disbelief, Mary and I were grabbing the kids and heading toward the door when, much to our relief, they taxied on by...
