We have been meeting monthly in Foster City since 09/2007 and would like to increase the number of people at our monthly discussions. We are a Charter Chapter of the American Humanist Association and each month discuss a book, article or other reading related to humanism, skepticism, free thought, etc. We are also looking to take action through the AHA action website or other local related groups. If you are a free thinker, skeptic, humanist, atheist, agnostic, etc. This is the group for you.
Meet like-minded blasphemers around the Bay. More than just an atheist meetup, we eschew intellectualization for a more laid back approach involving less use of the word "eschew". If you found American Dad's "Raptures Delight" episode to be full of awesomeness, then this is the group for you. http://www.hulu.com/watch/111568/am

This is a group to support individuals who have shed the doctrine they were most likely "brought up" in. As a former Christian, I do not have support from friends and family to pursue truth and have an honest discussion. We believe in the power of evidence, science and a healthy debate.
Meetup details are available only to members.

Of particular interest to this group is the development of self-evolving systems. The assumption is that apex systems evolve toward greater and greater complexity-handling capacity. Some call this "artificial intelligence," but we have trouble with the term as it …
Engage in lively discussion and debate around Nicholas Taleb's Black Swan Theory, which states that: - There is a disproportionate role of high-impact, hard to predict, rare events that are beyond the realm of normal expectations in history, science, finance and technology - It is difficult to compute the probability of such rare events using scientific methods (due to the nature of small probabilities), and - There is a psychological headwind that makes people individually and collectively blin …
