The Politically Incorrect Guide To Relationships #3 of 4


Tonight, Brett spoke about isolation, with paradoxical help from Bruce Jenkins, author of My Home, My Castle and It's Not Assault If It's Home Defence.

Our scripture reading was a story from 2 Samuel 13. (read the full text online here)

The scenario on the Scruples card was:

"You are enjoying yourself at a dinner party, when somewhere between main and dessert, another guest makes a comment about your dress sense. Do you (a) make a sarcastic jibe in return (b) find a reason to go home early (c) laugh it off with an innocent comment (d) wait for your moment and comment on their weight?"

To summarise Brett's conclusions:

1. Cultivate a lack of restraint for the interests of others.

2. Deal with the impulse toward celebrity.

3. Lean away from isolation.

Take care of yourselves, and each other. (ῧ)
