Good afternoon everyone!
Today:
Susan started things off today, talking about Factfulness and Active Measures. We had a great meeting today. We went around the group and asked what people wanted out of how we, as non-religious people, are seen by the outside world. While there were a lot of different responses, common themes were basically that a person can be "good without god," that we're tired of being seen as amoral, that we are a community, and that we are individuals who have as many or more different interests and beliefs as the rest of the world.
I guess a good way to say it might be that we're interested in atheist personhood. While not being hyperbolic, I wish that that were more of a joke.
Coming soon:
In other news, this weekend is Pride! Come see us!
Also, the 29th will be our next Drinking Skeptically!
I hope that everyone is having a fantastic September, and I hope to see you all soon!!!
