What we’re about

The mission of the Center for Inquiry is to foster a secular society based on reason, science, freedom of inquiry, and humanist values. To learn more about CFI and CFI-DC, please see http://www.centerforinquiry.net and http://www.centerforinquiry.net/dc . Please consider joining CFI.

CAFE INQUIRY meets on the LAST Tuesday of each month to discuss a topic chosen at the last meeting. Meetings are currently online. After in-person meetings we head to a restaurant down the street for those who wish to have food and continue the conversation.

***DRINKING SKEPTICALLY DC is currently suspended: please contact the organizers if you would like to restart this event. This basically involves making the restaurant reservations, managing the Meetup page and invitations, and showing up as host. We most recently met at Sushi Aoi, which is good for up to about 10 people inside, or more outside, but the location is up to the event organizer.***

Drinking Skeptically is an informal social event designed to promote fellowship among skeptics, humanists, and like-minded individuals. Drinking Skeptically provides an opportunity for skeptics, humanists, secularists, and others to talk, share ideas, and, yes, drink in a casual, relaxed atmosphere. We discuss science, history, philosophy, politics, or whatever is on our minds.

Secular-themed events in the DC area are also sponsored by the American Humanist Association (AHA), Washington Area Secular Humanists (WASH), and others.
