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 …

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 …
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 …
Scientists, educators, science communicators, scientific skeptics, and Fans of the Genre get together once a month for monthly Science & Suds pub nights and occasional science-theme adventures, such as our Skeptics in the Jeep trips. If you prefer the value of what we know to the false promise of Magic We Wish Were True, then come on down and tip a glass with us.

Come hang out with a group of scientifically-minded individuals discussing a wide variety of subjects ranging from Skepticism, Computers, Astronomy, Atheism, Technology and more!
Can you identify a major, vexing, obvious, easy to solve problem in your society or community? Do you view its resolution as straightforward and highly beneficial? Are you ever amazed at the roadblocks you face as you defend your position? Your arguments simple and plain, aren’t they? Your opponents don’t get it and you often wonder why, don’t you? Your opponents come up with arguments so poor that you can immediately dismiss them, right? Also, you would be willing to change your mind if you en …
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.
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 …

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 …

Welcome! Novice philosophers are encouraged to join as participation is not required. Topics of interest will be vast, including but not limited to, existence, knowledge, aesthetics, science, metaphysics, and logic. These and many other topics will be explored through analysis of literature, film, and scientific discovery.
This group caters to intelligent people who are seeking added depth to the usual conversations about topics that defy simple explanations and/or deserve deeper insight.
Do you have a rational worldview based on the natural world? Do you seek ethical models in the world that are based on compassion, science, and empiricism? Do you have an affinity and respect for science and skepticism? Are you looking to meet others who share your worldview in one of the most religiously conservative corners of California? Then come check us out!
