MIDWEST SKEPTICS SOCIETY:

A Visit to Mount Athos by Eric Dollard THIS COMING SAT, OCT 1, 7PM AT PERKINS. Eric always gives a very informative presentation. A 1000 years with no women? Not sure how I feel about that.

I'm sure his topic will be educational. COME JOIN US!

A Visit to Mt Athos

Mt Athos is a peninsula in Greece and the home to 20 Orthodox monasteries. It is unique because no women have been allowed there in 1,000 years. Eric Dollard, who visited two monasteries there in 2007, will begin his presentation with a 30 minute video from 60 Minutes. The video was originally broadcast on April 24 of this year. He will then discuss his experiences there through a Powerpoint presentation.

Eric.

We will go to Callahan's afterward for beer and more fun!

\*\*What Recovering from Religion is about:\*\*Doubt your beliefs? Have questions about changing or leaving your faith?
You are not alone, and we are here to help.
Learning how to live after questions, doubts, and changing beliefs is a journey. We at Recovering from Religion are intimately familiar with this path and are here to help you to cross that bridge. Our passion is connecting others with support, resources, community, and most of all, hope.
The primary focus of a Recovering From Religion support group is to provide ongoing and personal support to individuals as they let go of their religious beliefs. This transitional period is an ongoing process that can result in a range of emotions, as well as a ripple effect of consequences throughout an individual’s life. As such the support meetings are safe and anonymous places to express these doubts, fears, and experiences without biased feedback or proselytizing.
We are here to help each other through this journey.
If you find you need to talk with someone before the meeting date, RfR has a hotline and online chat for that express purpose. Call (844) 368-2848 to speak with someone or go to [www.recoveringfromreligion.org](https://www.recoveringfromreligion.org) to chat online.
If you’re seeking professional help, we can offer the Secular Therapy Project to provide options to connect with a professional therapist. All therapists have been thoroughly vetted by our organization and offer only evidence-based and non-religious treatment. Connect with them at [www.seculartherapy.org](https://www.seculartherapy.org).
