A book that inspires change, thought or action. 5. A book that is, above all else, well written. Every month, The Cult Fiction Club selects one book fitting all or …

Much depends upon your participation. The time has come for us to dismantle the 9/11 myth, and thereby to remove any remaining pretext for the endless global war.  In order to do this, we will need to engage in direct, real-time political action, which will involve street protest, distribution of scientific literature and politically sensitive material, possibly civil disobedience. Until the crimes of 9/11 have been thoroughly investigated as crimes, and the perpetrators brought to justice, huma …

This is (an independently run) co-ed Worcester Area (please live within a reasonable distance) group for men and women to gather and discuss gender neutral books.

Remember all those great books that were forced down our throats in High School? Do you remember them with fond memories? No, of course not. We were all too young with other priorities to fully appreciate them. This is a book group that aims to remedy that by revisiting all the great classics. Books like The Great Gatsby, Moby Dick, Crime and Punishment, Wuthering Heights, and many many more. This is not high school, there will be no tests or forced questions, just book lovers and casual discuss …

This is a group for anyone interested in the work of Neale Donald Walsch and his Conversations with God books. I've read many different authors (and still do) yet something keeps drawing me back to CwG. Maybe it's the way Neale asks the questions I always wanted to ask yet had no one to ask them of... Perhaps it's the way he makes it all seem so doable, so grounded. I appreciate the way Neale makes his concepts so truly useful to daily life. I'd love to have a group of people who wish to explore …
