Do you love the scientific method? Are you raising little critical thinkers in a world of woo? Are you appalled that baby acupuncture exists? Do you vaccinate your kids? If so than this is the group for you! We have a 3 year old and we are looking to build a community for ourselves and for our daughter. We would like to have not only discussion meet ups, but outings as well where we can expose our kids to science and the world around us.  We are a parenting playgroup where kids and parents alike …

Do you consider yourself to be kind and thoughtful? To be accepting of others? To be fun and engaging? Do you feel like you relate with so many, yet have met so many who rashly assume they probably won't relate with you? Do you feel like people seem to genuinely like who you are, yet even so, somehow don't quite know what to do with you in "their world?" Perhaps you almost feel like you're expected to focus on aligning your being with some kind of niche community or sub-culture, based on some di …

We are building a community for the new, fast growing, generation of atheist Americans. This group is opened to atheists/agnostics in their 20's and 30's who want to meet and talk with other like minded people. Our monthly event is an informal late lunch. We talk about anything that's on our mind, have some food and a few drinks. We also go bowling, play games and join in community events like the annual AIDS Walk and Atheists United's Highway Cleanup. Bring your friends or come to meet new ones …

We are a major community for atheists in the greater Los Angeles area. Our monthly meetup is usually the 4rd Sunday at 11am.

Join fellow atheists to discuss beliefs and philosophies, deepen your freethought heritage and make new friends.

Recovering From Religion is a support group for people letting go of religion. If you are one of the many people who have determined that religion no longer has a place in their life, but are still dealing with the after-effects in some way or another, Recovering From Religion (RR) may be just the right spot for you. Many people come to a point that they no longer accept the supernatural explanations for the world around them, or they realize just how much conflict religious belief creates. It c …

This group is for families of atheists, freethinkers, humanists, agnostics and all others with a rational world view with a focus on planning family-friendly activities and providing rational parents with a place to share and learn about raising freethinking children. We are looking for active members who would like to be involved in planning and hosting BBQs, game nights, pool parties, and trips to the zoo, beach days, amusement park trips and any other family friendly activity in the Los Ang …

Hi! Welcome to my group & I hope we meet up soon! :) I started this group because I wanted to meet other young, non-religious singles on the Westside. This group is different for three reasons: 1) Instead of debating/discussing/defending/explaining why we are non-religious, I'd rather spend our time hanging out and talking about everything EXCEPT why we are non-believers. LOL Our lack of religion is a mere shared common background - instead of the focal point of our meet ups. 2) This would be a …

Meet others who are interested in getting in shape and taking advantage of the beautiful hiking trails that are so close to us. We will meet one or two times a month at varying locations!

BibleTalk is for anyone (even a skeptic) who is interested in openly discussing biblical issues from a philosophical, practical, or theological perspective in a respectful manner. Our mission is to build and make disciples of Jesus as He commanded us to do in the great commission and *really* live out the Christian faith in spirit and truth. God commands us to love Him with all our minds (which means reason), all our hearts (which means love), and all of our strength, and all of our soul (which …

Star Wars, The Matrix, Avatar, Star Trek and many other favorites often contain themes of God and spirituality which make for great storytelling. But are these just themes of fiction or is there something more? Can it be that the success of these films is due to their speaking of concepts we are created to connect with on a spiritual level? Join us as we meet, discuss, and record podcast episodes of "Not Of This World!" Join me in the FusionFilter Faithcast as we discuss Sci-Fi & the Bible from …

*This meetup group is a way for us to meet new people. The members of this group hang out often, 2-3 days per week, but we do not use this site to do so. If you are interested in joining us, please email us. 1) This group is for people who are interested in living their Great Life and especially for those who value mixed-age social groups and want to have friends of all ages--toddlers through centenarians. This is also a group for whole families and especially for stay-at-home moms who practice …

This group caters to intelligent people who are seeking added depth to the usual conversations about topics that defy simple explanations and/or deserve deeper insight.

Informed by Nature organizes group trips to cool science events in the LA area. Whether its a star party at the Griffith Park Observatory, a talk at JPL, or a first Friday social event at the Natural History Museum, we meet up and go together, as a collection of people who love science, and often go out for a drink or coffee afterward. Ultimately, we hope to create a social community that emphasizes raising consciousness to the magnificence of the natural world and supporting the science that dr …

I am excited, proud, and enriched by participation in secular humanism groups which foster celebration of freedom from irrational religious dogma and custom. There are many groups in the LA area, but we are notably lacking one for all ages in Santa Monica.  Like religious folks, we need community--so let's create one!  We are just getting started, so the focus and activities may, might I say, EVOLVE over time.  Your ideas are essential.

The Godless Liberal Social Society unapologetically celebrates progressive liberal politics and godlessness. Our members include liberal minded atheists, agnostics and others with doubt in “old bearded white man” theory and magical thinking in general. While we must give credit to Ann Coulter for popularizing the phrase "Godless Liberal", we are quite different from her. We’re a thoughtful bunch of red blooded Americans who live at the crossroads of science and compassion. PLEASE NOTE: We are …
