        Say you've got really bad wind and it wouldn't be fair on the other participants.

          Initiate a mass fainting event.

              just turn to the nearest person and say in an agressive tone

              "what do you mean i hear voices?"

              stand up and walk out

                Mention that you've been constipated for a while and you think that the laxatives are starting to work and then quickly leg it to trap 4. Stay there for a while whilst playing on your phone

                  Send a reply to the invite syaing your glad to have been included as it will give you a chance to put forward your proposals for a Christian approach to solving project issues and the inclusion of Prayer in the project management methodolgy.

                  Although depending on the client the latter may already be unofficially implemented.

                    Why give a reason? If the invite gives you the option of accept/decline just pick the one you want.

                    Then 5 mins before the meeting go for a carp or something
