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 …
Open now to serve the Greater L.A. skeptical community... east side, west side, downtown, uptown, San Fernando and San Gabriel valleys -- hopefully there will be something for everyone! Had enough of astrologers, psychics, homeopaths, and bible thumpers? Yearning to talk with someone rational for awhile? Meet up with other L.A.-based skeptics for some refreshing and sane conversation and some great activities. No sacred cows here--just an ever-growing community of critical thinkers willing to r …
Do you love the scientific method? Are you raising little critical thinkers in a world of woo? Are you appalled that baby acupuncture exists? Do you vaccinate your kids? If so than this is the group for you! We have a 3 year old and we are looking to build a community for ourselves and for our daughter. We would like to have not only discussion meet ups, but outings as well where we can expose our kids to science and the world around us. We are a parenting playgroup where kids and parents alike …
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 …

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 …

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 …
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 …
We are a major organization for atheists in the Los Angeles metro area. Our monthly meetup is usually the 4rd Sunday at 11am. Our events vary from informative lectures to secular movies to playing fun games. Lunch is always served after the general meeting. Join our community of atheists to discuss beliefs and philosophies, deepen your freethought heritage and make new friends.
Mission Statement: The Humanist Community of Ventura County was formed to provide a welcoming social environment for those committed to secular values and community service. Essentially, we're your friendly neighborhood non-believers who are here to show the world that we're good without god :) More than anything we want to establish a safe and positive sense of community among local Ventura County Humanists! All are welcome and we hope to meet you soon!
If you are a fan of the "Ardent Atheist" podcast, come hang out with Heather and Emery on the first Wednesday of every month on their "Stop God, Get Together for Heathens"!
There are no upcoming Meetups.
I'm starting this group to provide a forum for those of us who are both atheist and politically liberal and reside in Santa Clarita or environs. I have been a member and, in one instance, a co-organizer of various secular meet ups and organizations and I am hoping to have a narrower focus in this meetup. I think that the current political climate will provide ample subject matter for discussion through November and beyond! Anyone who finds the day to day political arena fascinating and/or frustr …

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 …
This group is for families of atheists, freethinkers, humanists, agnostics and all others with a rational world view with a focus on planning family-friendly activities and providing rational parents with a place to share and learn about raising freethinking children. We are looking for active members who would like to be involved in planning and hosting BBQs, game nights, pool parties, and trips to the zoo, beach days, amusement park trips and any other family friendly activity in the Los An …
WHAT IS THE PROSPERITY CIRCLE? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be completely financially free? What does financial freedom mean to you? For most of us the concept or dream of financial freedom only happens to the elite few during our life journey on earth. And for each of us, what this means is very personal depending on what our experience has been in the past or what has been ingrained in our consciousness from society. So let’s just say you were financially free and whatever …
Informed by Nature organizes group trips to cool science events in the LA area. Whether its a star party at the Griffith Park Observatory, a talk at JPL, or a first Friday social event at the Natural History Museum, we meet up and go together, as a collection of people who love science, and often go out for a drink or coffee afterward. Ultimately, we hope to create a social community that emphasizes raising consciousness to the magnificence of the natural world and supporting the science that dr …
It’s Saturday night… you’ve just left a movie, a concert, a sporting event, or are leaving a wonderful restaurant with some friends… it’s a little after 10 PM, and you're not ready to call it a night. But, you’re not in the mood to go to the cool n’ busy dessert emporium either. The answer you're looking for is at Arthur’s Place. It’s relaxed, inviting, and the vibes are always warm & welcoming. It’s a place where fresh brewed coffee (usually Sumatra!) is always on. Spring water and a gigantic …

Star Wars, The Matrix, Avatar, Star Trek and many other Sci-Fi favorites often contain themes of God and spirituality which make for great storytelling. But are these just themes of fiction or is there something more? Can it be that the success of these films is due to their speaking of concepts we are created to connect with on a spiritual level? Join us as we meet, discuss and record theme based podcast episodes of "Sci-Fi and the Biblical Frontier"! Join me in the FusionFilter Faithcast as we …

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 …
