The Issues You Don't Talk About Cafe

Here is your chance to move the water cooler at work out amongst the rest of the world. This multi-partisan group will talk about everything from politics to religion to race; the things that you aren't supposed to talk about.
We are about the sharing of ideas and points of view which will likely be different from views you currently hold. The goal is not to solve anything, but to leave the Meetup with a better understanding of how someone who hold beliefs completely opposite from you can come to their conclusions. This requires disagreement, but respect for the views of other people.
So bring your brain and your passion, but leave your anger and condescension at home. It is encouraged that we all leave as friends, and required that we don't leave as enemies.
For this group to succeed, it is important that we have a diverse group of people, from conservatives to liberals with different ethnicities and religions from all walks of life.
If you are a hothead, this is not the group for you; there are plenty of what I call "Lovefest" groups out there.
This is a Learnfest!
So come test your views on the war, heaven and hell, affirmative action...what you learn should be fun!
