Part of the job?

The Baseball Chapel comes to our locker room on Sundays also in the Lg I am in. These are always polite men who knock and ask if they can come in and speak to us. They give the 3 of us a handout, say a prayer and usually leave fairly quickly. It tended to be an awkward situation with my crew as we really were not interested in this before a game, but did not want to be rude or seem intolerant. I think that the umpires who want to participate in this service, should be able to do this without basically forcing it on the others. If this were anything but religion, it would not be allowed anywhere near the locker room. My feeling is that we are free to worship as we please in our country. We also have the right to expect that we will not be forced to either.
