 The Gathering is not only a religious get-together but also is for socializing!
 Supporters visit a Gathering & encourage others to visit a Gathering.  They
 worship, pray & socialize, discuss, chat, eat & drink (non-alcoholic), sing &
 dance, laugh, play & harmonize...
 Active participation leads to experiences.  Experiences are important; they are
 something we like to share with others. We like to discuss our experiences
 with others. This increases our relationship with others. Increased good
 relationships translate into happiness.
 To make the experience work there needs to be variety.  Subjects covered may
 include family, Gathering activities, the Law-Giver Manifest, Shun-lists,
 knowledge, current news, hobbies & interests, local & provincial government.
 Discussion-Etiquette:  Listen closely without interrupting a speaker.  Reply
 passionately without being obnoxious, rude or aggressive.  Human
 relationships rely on passion, compromise & tolerance.  To diffuse a
 situation; agree to disagree.
 At all Gatherings, Supporters, visitors, Elders & Members are addressed as
 custodian-guardian (1st name) everyone is equal.  Elders & Members are
 leaders with honorary titles.  These titles are used only outside the Gathering
 in public or on committees.
 A Gathering is where FAITH meets the People.
  The Gathering is open from 1 hour after Sunrise to close 1 hour
 before Sunset (Time-Triangle) on Fun-Days. Many Fun-Days
 have Themes, 'Celebrations, Shame & Memorial days'.
 The Gathering keeps local traditions alive (dialect, dress, drinks, food, music,
 dance & customs) as long as they do not contravene the FAITH.
