"Number 3" coming from a guy who self-admittedly indulges in it at work about politics, with no malice aforethought with his co-workers. FFS, this is a total example of how the religious act, but just about politics in your workplace. I'll bet a ton of doughnuts to one nickel that not one of your co-workers has a different religious bent. Shee-it.
I wonder if you have me confused with someone else...?
I don't have co-workers. People pay me to teach private lessons at a community center. I go there, they hand me money, I go home. That's my job. The students are nearly all (nominally) Buddhists. The town is about 90% True Pure Land Buddhist. Since I'm not Buddhist, I guess I win the doughnuts. That's good; I like doughnuts.
We don't talk politics a lot. The classes are art history, philosophy, and literature. My doctorate was in the philosophy of art, and my dissertation was on how the theological views of two artists affected their means of expression.
We could PM later about delivering the doughnuts.
