Politics & America
by LouBelle ini must say for the first time i'm actually interested in the politics of america.
i don't know the details of it and the different camps but i must say with oprah backing that one dude (don't know his name) and with hilary clinton running - it is very interesting.
i reckon either one of these 2 could do a very good job.. how do you guys feel and who are you supporting and why.

Open Relationships, and Society's Cultural Unwritten Boundaries
by frankiespeakin ini'm a anarchist basically with a ever widening opening mind.
and i believe in them i don't beleive that either sex should dominate over the other .
on the grounds that every one is master over thier own body, and so to demand loyalty in the use of anothers body seems wrong.

Is it compulsory to stay the 15 minutes for association after the WT study?
by truthseeker inwell, today was the first sunday meeting with the half hour public talk.. the public talk was not for the public at all - it was about staying awake spiritually and was very hardcore.
more like a service talk.. before the meeting, one sister says that we are all expected to stay for at least 15 minutes after the wt study, because the society.
wants us to have more "association".. .

why is it better to "fade"?
by ruined ini've been reading various posts and i notice that fading is often advised by others who have done so or wish they had done so.
why is this better than being df'd?
i'm assuming it's because your family will not shun you if you are merely da'd ?
