Civil Tension
Politics
Weekly conversations on taboo topics. No topic is off limits, and are different each week. The only rule: Respect the integrity of the conversation. We are Civil, not polite. We are Civil, not p.c. Some people may find the topics and the conversations themselves, offensive. Do you know what happens you when you take offense? You receive a gift! The gift of the opportunity to listen, engage, learn, and grow. You might decide to disagree, and that's OK. You might decide to change your mind, and that's OK too!
