Why: Admin costs
HASSNERS meet in Southern England to discuss beliefs and ideas, campaign, listen to speakers and meet others of like mind. We meet at our own and other organisations events.
HASSNERS is primarily an events aggregation site (cf. Timeout, This Week, Huffpo) for people interested in HASSNERS topics viz. Humanist Atheist Scientific Secularist Naturalistic Evolutionary Rationalist Sceptics
But which label do you associate with? Take our poll: http://www.meetup.com/HASSNERS/polls/222747/
Humanist - try to live a good life without religious or superstitious beliefs.
Atheist - de facto atheist antitheists who affirm, in all probability, that gods do not exist.
Scientific - science & the scientific method is the best way (eg evolution v creationism) to understand the world.
Secularist - challenge religious privilege & discrimination.
Naturalistic - the natural world (the Universe) is all that exists; nothing supernatural or mystical. All events may be explained by natural causes.
Evolutionary - thought & biology evolve over time.
Rationalist - truth can be discovered by reason.
Sceptics - disposed to incredulity & doubt hence suspend final judgement.
