The end of July and the beginning of August

Good afternoon everyone!

I hope that this e-mail finds everyone well. I just wanted to throw a few things out there for this month and next:

Last Sunday

Not one of my prouder moments, but I should probably have planned to be absent from the meetup after the Bastille Day shindig. Thank you to everyone who made Secular Sunday grand, sans me. I heard that it was a good conversation and am sorry that I missed it.

This Sunday (the 22nd)

I don't know if anyone came up with a topic last time, but I was thinking that we could talk a bit more about things that we can do for kids/growing up secular/growing up religious/growing up in a cult/how weird must it be to be Suri Cruise? (mom Catholic, dad Scientologist). There are going to be a few people there who I know have kids - if they feel like dedicating a meetup to that. As any good organizer would do: I am abdicating all responsibility for this event - just let me know what YOU want to talk about  

Next Sunday (the 29th)

Hardball time, everybody. Gene has sent me a bunch and a half of articles dealing with consciousness and quantum physics. It's time we talked about them. I'll send some of his links and mine by next time. If you can message me before, say, five on Sunday, I should be able to include any articles that people would like sent out to the group.

Drinking Skeptically and Sundays Beeeeeeyond:

The 5th of August, I will be in Pennsylvania and cannot astral project myself to Greensboro (yet.) I leave this meeting in all of your very capable hands. Love you all.

Additionally, I'll be adding another Drinking Skeptically for August, but this is going to be the last one that I organize for a while because the school year is starting. And while summer is a great time to wake up on weekends praying to a god for death even though I don't believe in him, the I am getting old and cannot do that when I have to confront teach the children who are the future of our world. Let me know if you have any suggestions for locations, days, themes, etc.
