So here’s a question to all:

When you go to a public event where they offer an opening prayer or when you are at someone’s home and they offer to bless the food, and at these occasions the folks offering the blessing or prayers are any of these faiths mentioned or others such as Mormons, Muslims, Hindu, etc., do you pray with them or do you say you own prayer?

LOL! No, I offer to say the prayer, make the Sign of the Cross, continue with a general prayer of thanks and end with the Catholic prayer before meals. LOL! It works!

Their loss if they don’t invite me back.

Silently giving my own prayer is the usual way I would handle this...
