Did you stick with it JD or just attend a few classes?  It's a seven year deal and I'm in my 4th year; just a few
classes would not qualify anyone to make a judgment one way or the other.  This also includes Lance who is
passing judgment from the Bookstore down the street.   jt

These are not Free Masons with a secret agenda and code words, Judy.  I go when I can and have been doing so for a number of years.   I actually speak with those who are there, and interact with them.   Many are friends  --------------   I am very well qualified to describe the attitudes and agenda of the fellowship with which I attend.   As I said before  ---   there are all types and sizes in the meetings.   None of the speech is of a judgmental nature.   There is a free spirit uin our  sharing.   You are going nowhere if you think to challenge this.

Must be a different outfit John; I'm not talking about attitudes of ppl or their shapes and sizes. The meetings I go to are very structured
with no time for what you call "sharing"  We answer questions from the study we have worked on at home the previous week and  we listen
to a lecture afterwards so that the most there is time for in the way of sharing is just a greeting like Hi and how are you.  We have a fellowship once a month at different homes and this is where the deeper sharing takes place .. There is no 'just dropping in once in a while' that I know of.  It's total committment or 'hit the road Jack' in VA.  Surely even this is not different in California.   jt
