We are a community of atheists, agnostics, and other theistically challenged people residing in the Northeast Ohio area. The goal of this group is to bring local non-believers together in a friendly and comfortable environment where our thoughts can be shared without fear of chiding from ignorant faith-heads.

This is a group for anyone interested in getting together with other free thinkers in a non judging environment to talk about the problems religions cause and ways to fix the problem.

Looking for a "reason based" community?  Sick of the sad state of science education and the gullibility of the average person? Since 2008 our members have been making friends, learning, challenging and being challenged with people who like to examine commonly held ideas and beliefs with a scientific eye. Take a break from those who forward dubious alarmist emails or buy into the latest panacea, religious idea, scam or utopian vision based on "truthiness" alone. Hang out for a laugh, write an act …

While promoting the idea of a secular society, free from the influence of religion, we should meet, support and encourage each other as atheists.

I'm interested in starting a group of Humanists in Northeast Ohio with the intention of becoming a chapter of the American Humanist Association. The goals of this group can't be defined until more progress is made in forming it, but some ideas include social and support activity, hosting speakers and authors, and perhaps some Humanist activism.

Humanism is a progressive philosophy of life that, without supernatural beliefs, affirms our ability and responsibility to lead ethical lives of personal fulfillment that aspire to the greater good of humanity. The Humanist Society of Monroe - Michigan is a local community of people having a strong interest in or concern for human welfare, values, and dignity that is being formed to provide nonreligious people with the same opportunity for social interaction and community involvement that is of …

As human beings, living in this so-called free and secular nation, we have the ability and the right to question, examine and dissect all things religious, all things political, all things philosophical, all things cultural, even all things scientific. Any attempts to silence freethought will only make us think louder!

For those who feel alone, want and need support, Recovering From Religion is your place. We would meet 1 or 2 Saturdays of the month, and talk about anything that needs to be discussed. Most of all it is a community of your own to help you, hear you, and stand by you.

The primary focus of Recovering From Religion is to provide ongoing and personal support to individuals as they let go of their religious beliefs. This transitional period is an ongoing process that can result in a range of emotions, as well as a ripple effect of consequences throughout an individual’s life. If you are one of the many people who have determined that religion no longer has a place in their life, but are still dealing with the after-effects in some way or another, Recovering From …

We know that even in todays internet society there is a huge need for friendships and casual conversations face to face. Since the t …
