Within a large society, there will always be small groups of people who, for whatever reason, do not conform to the larger culture. In a free society, these people will form a smaller culture, a world of their own within the larger one. It is to these people, and these cultures, that ALT_CULTURE is dedicated. An alternative culture can include your way of life, your religion, just about anything. Come and join us for discussion or debate, whichever you prefer...
