"It's very refreshing to be with a smart group of people who have got it together. I especially liked the positive attitude taken by the chapter. I always wondered about the Morman cult and the speaker answered every question I had."

LINDA MASSIE (May 5, 2008)

"Very welcoming. They trie to make everyone comfortable without disrupting the presentation."

Richard W. Trombley (May 4, 2008)

"The event was great, but I believe we Atheists should show up in greater numbers to make our public presence felt."

Vanita Mishra (Feb 17, 2008)

"After several meetings, I'd call the group friendly and welcoming. I look forward to developing a more lasting relationship with the group and its members, though I haven't decided how involved in its running I might become. I like the idea of more structured small-group gatherings (like book clubs) to facilitate our understanding of atheism, increase our ability to discuss it with others (both reticent nonbelievers and open-minded believers), and support our efforts to deal with any difficulties associated with being "out and proud"."

Scott Jackson (Jan 20, 2008)

About this Meetup


Minnesota Atheists is Minnesota's oldest and largest atheist organization. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit, educational organization that seeks to promote the positive contributions of atheism to society and to maintain separation of state and church. Check out a message from our President.

Each year we hold eight monthly members meetings with guest speakers (Jan.-May, Sept.-Nov.), three picnics (June-Aug.), a Winter Solstice banquet (Dec.), and an annual banquet (July). Throughout each month we also sponsor social breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, as well as a movie outing. To find out about these events, sign up for A.W.E. - Atheists Weekly E-mail at our website.

We produce the cable program Atheists Talk, which is broadcast throughout the Twin Cities on first and third Sundays, 4:30-5:00 pm., on Metro Cable channel 6. We publish The Minnesota Atheist newsletter 10 times per year (free three-month trial subscription).

We offer speakers to the community free of charge. We specialize in presentations to high school and community college comparative religion classes.

Minnesota Atheists is a member society of the Atheist Alliance International, an umbrella organization for independent, local atheist groups. The goal of the Alliance is to help establish strong, democratic, autonomous atheist societies around the world. The Alliance sponsors an annual national convention, publishes the quarterly Secular Nation magazine, and engages in other activities to help make the atheistic viewpoint heard and respected.

Minnesota Atheists is also an affiliate of American Atheists, which holds annual national conventions and publishes the quarterly American Atheist magazine and the monthly, members-only, American Atheists Newsletter.

Minnesota Atheists is also part of the Alliance of Secular Humanist Societies (ASHS), which is connected to the Council for Secular Humanism, publishers of Free Inquiry and Skeptical Inquirer magazines.
