We're on every 1st Monday on Zoom and 3rd Thursday of the month in person.

Main group page: https://www.meetup.com/atheistsunited/

🛑What to expect:

Discussion sparked by short videos about atheism, religion, science, current events, critical thinking, comedy, life hacks, health and beyond >>> followed by moderated discussions.

🛑What we're about:

WELCOME to https://www.AheistsUnited.org's meetup - one of many opportunities to engage in mindful discussions, lectures, book clubs, educational forums mostly online, and our In-Person-Volunteer events like the monthly food distribution in person.

Other Atheists United links are listed below.

We are an ethically centered community for greater Los Angeles atheists.

Our mission is to build thriving atheist communities, empower people to express their secular values, and promote the separation of government and religion.

🛑Meeting format:

This is a place for atheists to meet, have dinner with (eating on camera is ok), and talk to other atheists, skeptics and humanists.

A few agnostics and religious people sometimes show up as well and they are welcome as long as they are not there to proselytize.

We mandate courtesy and respect to fellow attendees, and no proselytizing. Foremost, this is a social gathering, and support group for like-minded persons, not a debate club.

If you're coming just to argue on matters of religion or politics, don't bother showing up, you're not going to convert anyone, and you will be asked to leave.

🛑This is a 2 hour event, but often we go overtime when the discussion and the great atmosphere it requires; or when we can't get enough of seeing familiar faces and perhaps some new ones.

Feel free to stay as long or as short as you'd like.

🛑Look out for topics posted in the discussion section and please place your own ideas, questions or concerns in the comments and please feel free to private message any of our co-organizers by clicking on their names.

Bring your unique point of view and add to the discussion.

Events in Sacramento, CA

Coming to your home theatre by Zoom! The Reason Center of Sacramento will host a monthly movie night where we will share movies and discuss afterward. The Reason Center has an MPLC License (https://www.mplc.org/page/the-umbrella-license), which allows us to legally show copyrighted films and TV programs in public spaces as long as we follow a couple of simple rules:

1. We can't make any money from showing these films - no problem, we would dream of charging admission!
2. We can't publish movie titles on public platforms like meetup.

So, to abide by that second rule, we'll tell you generally that the movie will may be some historical piece or biopic focused on the heroes of the humanistic and secular movement. Or we may show movies that spotlight religious themes. Or we may occasionally enjoy some fun comedy or cartoon. In any case, we will conclude with a good discussion of the content, afterward.
We will discuss future films to show at the end of each event, or if you see us in real life or a Zoom meeting, we'll be happy to tell you what movie we plan to show next. So stay tuned!
