    Ahh, didn't you love those local needs parts? You never knew when you were going to be chastised for not doing enough.

    Once our local needs talk was on "porneia". It appears an elder's daughter had gotten herself in some trouble, and tried to get out of it by claiming she didn't know oral sex was porneia. As long as it wasn't actual penetration, she thought it was OK. At least that's what she said. Well, it worked for her, but they made sure that everyone else couldn't get away with it, so they had a graphic talk saying all oral, anal, and any other kind of sex/touching was all porneia. I was sitting next to my mom, I was 13 years old, and I was humiliated.

    Be great to get a thread going after the meeting this week of what each of the "Special Interests" were and what effect did it have on those attending.

    IPSEC- Wonder what the congos in your area are going to hear this week....
