Atlanta Freethought Society meetup group

The Atlanta Freethought Society is a non-profit organization founded in 1985 to provide a community for non-theists in the Metro Atlanta, Georgia area through educational, advocacy, and social activites.

AFS's mission is to
· Enrich and empower our membership through education and activism.
· Provide a social and intellectual community for freethinkers.
· Defend and promote the separation of church and state.
· Educate the public about non-theists and church-state separation.

AFS is a member organization, and membership is open to anyone who supports and agrees with our stated purposes. We are not strident about promoting atheism, secular humanism, agnosticism, or what labels you may choose to describe yourself with, but we do ask you to be in general support of our stated purposes. We try to balance activism with other member activities.

Visitors are always welcome.

This meetup group is a secondary communications tool for our organization. There is no cost to be on our meetup list but joining this meetup does not create a membership in our organization. To join AFS or for more information about AFS, visit our website at http://www.Atlant...

    "I am open-minded and believe in liberty, science, and reason. If you're religious, there's a church on every corner for you. There are precious few places to fellowship with freethinkers. I'm tired of having to hide in the shadows of society."
