Free Will and Determinism : Coffee + Discussion - In Person

Moments of non-belief : What were the times that started to make you question. Was it a counter argument, learning about other religions, reading some fiction, something else. Share and talk about it.

Dualism in philosophy is the idea that reality is composed of two distinct, often opposing, substances or principles. This is seen in the mind-body problem, suggesting that the mind and body are fundamentally different and separate entities. We wonder if this idea of dualism, especially souls is inherent to human development and if this strong idea is one of the reason that religions develop.

***

Those who have left religion have many different experiences; sometimes, those experiences left behind leave us worse for wear. We probably all have a lot of stories, so this is our chance to share them. Whether we just need to laugh, process difficult situations , or are seeking layman's advice, we will break into smaller groups so that everyone has a chance to share. If anything is pressing, or issues are really at a critical moment, please check out the 24/7 hotline from RECOVERING FROM RELIGION: 1-84-I-Doubt-It (1-844-368-2848).

Location:
Go around the back of the Lake Park Bistro and find us in the meeting room that overlooks the Large Stairs and Lake.
