Skeptics of Tucson
|
Greetings Skeptics of Tucson (and areas surrounding). The Skeptics of Tucson have been quiet for too long. it's time to reinvigorate the organization, there is so much to be skeptical about. The purpose of the group is to create a skeptical environmnet and where it is safe to take on the superstitious, the frauds, and the willfully ignorant...well at least we'll talk bad about them. It's an opportunity to check in and check out our own sanity. Everyone with a skeptical (not cynical) bend should join. You'll get socialization, mental challenges, and the opportunity to express your own feelings on a variety of subjects. Membership is free.

Our next meeting:
Skeptics Discussion
What can I say? We make up the agenda as we go. Some items that will be covered will include where and when we meet next. What local events require our participation. We'll always have time to discuss paranormal silliness in the local area. One of the things of interest at the last meeting included, "What is your paranormal kink?" We all have some silly superstition that we can't seem to shake. Read more
