In the United States? Of course! However if they choose to exercise their freedom of speech, elders may and ask them to meet somewhere else. So there is an environment where your receiving is conditional; based on that you do not express concerns on matters, issues, or persons. That your speaking is positive and affirming and not rebuking or correcting.
Here is an environment where there is freedom to exercise speech within the guidelines of the forum. There's no expectation we need to agree with one another and in many cases, we do not.
