The purpose of our group is very simple: we discuss and analyze ideas. The word "analyze/analytical" is not a reference to syllogistic, analytical philosophy, but rather stands for those who like to analyze and critique ideas. Its a place for thinkers to connect with other thinkers! The format is also very simple: there is a brief 15 to 30 minute lecture (the shorter the better) followed by a civil conversation. We believe in organic group mingling. Not all thinkers are compatible, as thinkers …

Whatcom Freethought group.

As increasingly demented dictator (organizer) of this group, I have agreed to a "coup" that hanged the title from "Secularists" to "Freethinkers." I am confident that either this name will last for a year or so, or God will strike me dead for allowing it to happen. (change made January 18, 2013). If you are unhappy about it, start your own group. You are free to think. Not everyone on Whidbey Island is a religious believer. There are lots of interesting , useful, and healthful things to do on W …

This group is for people who like to mix philosophical discourse and drinking. If you're looking for carefully moderated debate, look elsewhere. These discussions are unstructured intellectual free-for-alls - the only two constants are booze and a keen interest in the nature of reality and human existence. We take philosophy very seriously, but we don't think taking it seriously demands that you act like an academic when discussing it. No formal training is necessary -  no one will be expected …

From http://www.venganza.org: By design, the only dogma allowed in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is the rejection of dogma.

To outsiders it makes us hard to define, but here are some general things that can be said about our beliefs: We believe pirates, the original Pastafarians, were peaceful explorers and …
