24 Meetup Groups match “Skeptics” near Boston, MA
The Greater Lowell Area Skeptics Society (GLASS) was started to help foster a healthy community of critical thinkers who gather to talk, eat, drink, game, and whatever else we do to be fun and social. We hold up the candle of science to shine light on the darkness of all things pseudo-scientific. If you've ever questioned the evidence for psychics, ghosts, creationism, or the efficacy of alternative medicines, then you might be a skeptic. Join us.
We are a loose group of skeptics who meet on the 3rd Tuesday of the month to learn and exchange ideas. Our presentation are on skeptical topics. All our welcome. Learn more at our website - www.capeannskeptics.com

Bryant University Rational Non-Theists (BURNT) is a group for Bryant University faculty, staff and students who affirm freethought and free expression without religious privilege. We support secular governance as the only religiously neutral means of promoting the interests of all constituents on campus as well as in civic life.
This is a group for anyone not a part of an organized religion. It is for individuals who don't believe in the existence of a God or Gods. It is a group for the promotion of rational and free thought. I started this group to reach out to a community that does not have (to my knowledge) any other meetings, programs, or gatherings to attend on the Cape. Since I am passionate about my beliefs (or lack thereof) I wanted to gather like-minded individuals together to see what we come up with! This gro …

We believe in using COMMON SENSE IDEAS to build a healthier and happier community. What do we mean by Common Sense? We agree with the Webster's definition: "Beliefs or propositions that most people believe prudent and of SOUND judgment without reliance on esoteric knowledge or study or research, but based upon what they see as knowledge held by people in common. Thus common sense (in this view) equates to the knowledge and experience most people ALREADY HAVE." We believe that even with ALL O …

This group was created because I feel that we need more open-ended discussion groups that allow us to develop community and meet other freethinkers whose thinking is focused on science, philosophy, art, politics, innovative social thinking, agnosticism, atheism, humanism, current events, culture, intellectualism and community development. This group does not espouse anti-religion or anti-cultural movements, nor support a particular political or social platform. All thinkers of all social, politi …

Humanism is a godless philosophy based on reason and compassion. Humanists believe that our morality is based on the well being of conscious creatures, and that no higher power needs to be appeased. Here in Rhode Island, where the Catholic Church holds such sway and power that we can't pass a marriage equality bill or even remove a prayer from our schools without going to court, it's important to remember our founder Roger Williams, the man who first established a part of this world where church …

We've enjoyed our time with other Atheist Meetup Groups so much, we decided to create one a little closer to home (Peabody, MA). Get together with other atheists on the North Shore for various social and recreational outings without having to travel into Boston! This is not a discussion group, although our members are free to discuss whatever they wish. It's really for people who have already done the research and concluded that the existence of deities is just like the existence of fairies...no …
