What we’re about
Welcome to our community of atheists, agnostics, freethinkers, and rationalists. We meet every Sunday for a brief sermon followed by a group discussion. We welcome people of all ages. We are building a community of people with shared values, focusing on uplifting topics for atheists: being good without god, feeling wonder in a world that can be understood through reason and science, and contributing to your community without religion. Children are welcome.

•OnlineSunday Morning Stoicism
OnlineLet's get together before church and discuss this week's passages from The Daily Stoic! Each day of the year has a corresponding "devotional reading" (so to speak). Each week we discuss the readings since our previous meeting, from the previous Monday through the Sunday of the meeting, and share what resonated with us, what we found profound, and what insights we can apply to what's going on in our lives.
Each reading is about 3 minutes long. They're all self-contained, so you don't need to worry about catching up - feel free to jump in on any week's session!

This is one of those events where more people show up than RSVP on Meetup, so don't be discouraged from attending just because of a low RSVP count.4 attendees
•OnlineOnline Service: Led Astray: False Narratives and the Overton Window
OnlineThe Stanford Prison Experiment. Lord of the Flies. The Milgram Shock Experiments. Three famous demonstrations that human beings are, if not innately eager to commit atrocities, at least easily made to be so. There's just one tiny problem...
...only one of them is even remotely true. And it's not the most famous one.
The stories we tell shape our expectations of our society (the Overton Window), each other, and ourselves. But are those stories true? And which ones should we tell?
This week's speaker will be Mikki Phoenix.
After the talk, we'll have a group discussion to explore the ideas presented, and to share related thoughts, resources, and personal experiences.
