Skeptics in the Pub (Detroit) ***DATE CHANGED***
The Brakeman, 22 John R St, Detroit, MI, USThis month’s Skeptics in the Pub (Detroit) will be held at The Brakeman.
Skeptics in the Pub, “Critical Thinking with a Pint,” is an opportunity for nontheists to converse in a casual, fun atmosphere.
Learn more about the international Skeptics in the Pub movement at skepticsinthepub.org. (We don’t invite speakers, but rather follow our conversations wherever they take us. For a more structured discussion, look for Café Inquiry events on our calendar.)
This event is free and open to the public. Donations appreciated, but not expected.
Don’t drink? That’s okay! Many famous skeptics were teetotalers, and there is no problem with that.
Drinking skeptically means drinking responsibly. Science teaches us what alcohol does to the human body.

Café Inquiry (ONLINE) - Is There a Fountain of Youth?
·OnlineOnlineThis event is held online. To see the Zoom link, RSVP and look at the right hand panel.
Recently we’ve been hearing reports of new ways to prolong life and even reverse the effects of aging. Where are these reports coming from and how reliable are they? Has the Fountain of Youth finally been found? Well, not literally, of course, but at the next Cafe Inquiry Online we will explore what we know about ongoing research into slowing or reversing the aging process and anti-aging treatments that are being promoted. We’ll post some links to background materials here a few days before the meeting. See you there!
Visit https://michiganhumanists.org/events for recommended readings prefacing this week's discussion.
Café Inquiry starts with a short introduction of the day’s topic, followed by casual discussion.
This event is free and open to the public. Donations appreciated, but not expected.
Attendees are able to future propose topics which would align with Michigan Humanist’s purpose: from atheism, agnosticism, humanism, secularism, and freethinking to broader subjects in science and humanities, such as religion, philosophy, social issues, politics, evolution, morality, ethics, and psychology.
Café Inquiry (Grand Rapids) meets each month IN PERSON on the second Sunday and ONLINE on the fourth Sunday.
