What we’re about
If you are interested in meeting local SFV atheists and freethinkers for conversation and friendship, this is the group to join! We are a fun group, with some very great people. Our group will give you the sense of community that you might be seeking in your atheistic life!
We welcome atheists, agnostics, skeptics, freethinkers, rationalists, humanists of any flavor, and anyone else who embraces reason and a naturalistic view of the universe.
Our mission is to build thriving atheist communities, empower people to express their secular values, and promote the separation of government and religion.

•OnlineSecular Spirituality: Oxymoron or Emotional Meaning?
OnlineAtheists United and its chapters are thrilled to host humanist scholar Adam Chalom for a presentation on one of the most interesting linguistic and cultural topics of our time...
What is the balance between a secular lifestyle and spiritual or emotional fulfillment? Is “spirituality” a concept inappropriate for Humanists, or a basic human need that we can meet too?
Adam Chalom is a leading voice in the movement of Humanistic Judaism. He is the rabbi of Kol Hadash Humanistic Congregation in suburban Chicago and Dean of the International Institute for Secular Humanistic Judaism. He also serves on the Executive Committee of the Association of Humanistic Rabbis and is on the editorial board of the quarterly magazine Humanistic Judaism. Chalom holds degrees from Yale University and the University of Michigan, where he received his PhD in Near Eastern Studies. Most recently, he co-edited Contemporary Humanistic Judaism: Beliefs, Values, Practices (University of Nebraska Press/Jewish Publication Society, 2025).

We're on every 1st Monday on Zoom and 3rd Thursday of the month in person. Our calendar (including other events): https://www.meetup.com/sfv-atheists-united/events/calendar/
🛑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.AtheistsUnited.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: Online
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.
