If you do not wish to take part for some reason then you are put in a difficult position. This almost seems like enforcement.

I take part, but would not wish to enforce this on others and would not think less of any who dont.

WPLS. Keep your gob shut and read a document for a few moments while others participate. It won't kill you.

I did that, I was complaining about the whole falseness of it. Never mind its over for another year.

I would, i'd be offended if I was in an office where someone did not respect the silence. In doing so, they are disrespecting those of us who believe it still has meaning.
