 | We would be honored if you'd join our committee. We are always looking for intelligent, open minded people like yourself to join our cause. |  |
|
 | I'll be (candid) with you. No amount of (cajoling) will convince me to join that ridiculous group. You work in unnecessarily (brazen) ways that I do not support. |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | I have to object. We strive to be a (benevolent) organization that helps those in need. |  |
|
 | At best, your methods are (benign). But far more often they are perceived as threatening to others, and that is unacceptable. |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | Please, your membership would really help to (bolster) our team's morale. We need more support to be able to continue in our pursuit. |  |
|
 | I respectfully decline. I have no interest in any false sense of (camaraderie) I might find there. |  |
