Life and Ideas of Baruch Spinoza

Don will make a presentation and lead a discussion about the life and ideas of the 17th century Dutch Philosopher Baruch Spinoza. Spinoza challenged the religious dogmas of his day and had an important impact on other enlightenment thinkers and on modern secularism.

We will meet in person at 11:00 am in Central Austin (a few blocks from Lions Municipal Golf Course). For location details please email doncastig@gmail.com

Typical attendance 10-15 humanists.

Please note: Atheists, agnostics, skeptics, free-thinkers, questioning, and believers - whatever you like to call yourselves, you are welcome here.
At AHC we call ourselves secular humanists because you will never hear anything supernatural promoted from the podium. AHC was founded on the principles of scientific naturalism and secular ethics, which commits us, on the one hand, to reason and evidence-based thinking, and, on the other, to compassion for our fellow human beings.
These commitments motivate us to oppose magical and wishful thinking and all forms of dogma, as well as to stand firmly against all forms of oppression.
