It doesn't put a damper on my day either. But I'm not going to wait to eat while they pray just to make someone else feel better if we're out at Friday's for dinner. You can take the time to pray, I'm going to eat my Jack Daniel's burger, no tomato.
If we're at someone's house... eh... then it's sort of a respect thing. I'm in your home, I can keep quiet while you do grace and politely say amen at the end of the meal. Not a big deal.
But in a restaurant? Fuck you, I'm eating. Not gonna make a big deal of it. Not gonna argue, but also not gonna wait until they're finished. I'm hungry so I'm eating. Pray if you want, but I'm eating.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
