This group is for skeptics of all types. You might say a skeptic is one who is an evidential truth-seeker. One who knows what his/her reality is by the evidence presented to them. One who inquirers about everything, but accepts the most reasonable explanation based on science and falsifiable claims. There is no topic a true skeptic will not approach, and the topic of religion is one of those. This group is NOT for those who say “I know for sure that I am right, that my religion is one true r …

Do you consider yourself to be kind and thoughtful? To be accepting of others? To be fun and engaging? Do you feel like you relate with so many, yet have met so many who rashly assume they probably won't relate with you? Do you feel like people seem to genuinely like who you are, yet even so, somehow don't quite know what to do with you in "their world?" Perhaps you almost feel like you're expected to focus on aligning your being with some kind of niche community or sub-culture, based on some di …
We are building a community for the new, fast growing, generation of atheist Americans. This group is opened to atheists/agnostics in their 20's and 30's who want to meet and talk with other like minded people. Our monthly event is an informal late lunch. We talk about anything that's on our mind, have some food and a few drinks. We also go bowling, play games and join in community events like the annual AIDS Walk and Atheists United's Highway Cleanup. Bring your friends or come to meet new ones …

Blessings! Just kidding... In a nutshell, I was raised in a fundamentalist pentacostal charismatic christian church and getting over that was pretty rough. I thought I was alone in my experience, but have come across a lot of people who have had similar challenges entering "the world" after leaving fear and guilt-based groups and worldview. The purpose of this group is two-fold: 1) Allow ex Christians to share openly and support each other through some of the challenges of leaving fun …

For Brights, and those who are fans of Brights. Let's socialize and philosophize and politicize in order to bring realists like ourselves better political outcomes. There are only two reasons for "freethinkers" to meet. Maybe three. 1. I don't drink...(1a.) and have a significant other. 2. I don't have kids...enjoy whatever social ecology you need to raise them, and have fun. 3. We can ensure our views are represented politically, so as to assure our freedom of thought. Let's MEETUP and figure …

Hi! Welcome to my group & I hope we meet up soon! :) I started this group because I wanted to meet other young, non-religious singles on the Westside.
This group is different for three reasons:
1) Instead of debating/discussing/defending/expla
ining why we are non-religious, I'd rather spend our time hanging out and talking about everything EXCEPT why we are non-believers. LOL Our lack of religion is a mere shared common background - instead of the focal point of our meet ups.
2) This would be a …

Do we survive death? Can the dead communicate with the living? Can we, the living, communicate back? These are important spiritual questions; however, they are questions that are just as important to science and our knowledge of the the universe we live in. For as long as mankind has existed, people from all walks of life, all levels of belief and all levels of education have reported experiencing "something" spiritual. While modern day skeptics and scientists dismiss such notions as delusional …

The Godless Liberal Social Society unapologetically celebrates progressive liberal politics and godlessness. Our members include liberal minded atheists, agnostics and others with doubt in “old bearded white man” theory and magical thinking in general. While we must give credit to Ann Coulter for popularizing the phrase "Godless Liberal", we are quite different from her. We’re a thoughtful bunch of red blooded Americans who live at the crossroads of science and compassion. PLEASE NOTE: We are …
