  2. friends

  most people here have never met you.

  we converse, discuss, argue, laugh, agree, question, share our lives..... quite often, you kind of get to know what a person is like.

  some people, we tend to gravitate to and others, we shy away from.. how do you think you come across to other people?

  2. bible

  i do know a place where "in?delity on the part of one or both mates, homosexuality, behavioral problems, aggression, anxiety, depression, or suicidal tendencies" occur.. it is a group home where several thousand young single men live together communal style.

  the eat, sleep, work, and recreate in communal groups.

  they rarely mingle outside the communal group.
