Yes, as a matter of fact I would be offended by
anyone asking me to attend. By asking me to attend a bible study (or any other religious thing) the other person is automatically assuming that either a) I don't already attend or b) I'm in need of it. And that assumption is incredibly offensive.
I don't feel the need to spend an hour of my time sitting in church just so others can see me and think that I'm a good believer. I prefer to spend my time helping others less fortunate than myself. My hour a week is much better spent on Monday nights babysitting for women who have been abused and are in support groups.
