We'll choose topics in philosophy, politics, religion, and other categories typically considered taboo outside homogeneous gatherings.

Ever feel like dating is a single-elimination tournament? Tried online dating only to find your catch was a 'catch and release'? Or maybe you've found yourself (much to your dismay) being an online stalker who constantly checks to see if your latest love interest is online. Ever told someone you'd call them when you had no intention to? Don't understand why you haven't heard from him/her when it seemed to go so well?

We explore the relation of science and the observation of nature to orthodox Christian faith. We start with a presentation and schedule time for open discussion and questions. Our meetings ar …

After belonging to other reading groups with much younger members I have come to realize that my life experiences and theirs are vastly different. Being separated by several generations means you will have a very different take on the books you read. That would be fine if the younger people were open-minded enough to consider that I may know what I'm talking about when discussing housewives from the 50's. After all, my mother was one of them. But they did not do that. They simply fed me the pa …
