The Human Odyssey

"When you have eliminated the impossible,
whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

Wherever you are with your beliefs, whatever your questions or doubts
come talk to a life-long atheist, tell us about your journey, your questions and doubts.

People don’t become atheists by being spoken into existence by magic words or a perfect argument. They may, however, evolve into it if you plant the right seeds, put a crack in their foundation. Something that will gnaw at their psyche, their doubts and fears, something that opens a question.

People who have left religion began their journey by asking questions.

If you’re a progressive humanist/atheist/agnostic/freethinker/(other label!) and want to enjoy the company of other free-thinkers, you are warmly invited to have lunch with us. We’ll talk about whatever interests us, make new friends and make sense together using rational discourse and wisdom garnered from our lives. Our purpose is social, our philosophy is skeptical humanist, and our politics are progressive. What is a Humanist?

Code Names is the game of choice for the next few meetings. We open at 6:30 so that newcomers can have time for a tutorial; the first game starts promptly at 7 pm. It ends when the group agrees—typically around 9—there’s no definite end time. If you log-in late, you can always cheer the players on and still be able to play in the second game of the night.

We are always looking for new games. Got suggestions?

And hey... No cheating or praying to win!

Have you ever wanted to start your own podcast? Lead a group discussion? Or more simply, just ace that interview? Or maybe you have secular ideas that bump around in your head that you would like to express to a sympathetic group. If any of these ideas have rattled around in your head, then let me tell you, you should stop by and see if you are ready to take the first step into your true desires.

We meet the 2nd and 4th Saturday each month from 2:00 - 4:00 pm.

It is not required that you be an atheist, secular, humanist, free-thinker, but you will be with like minds if you are.
