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 group was originally founded as the "Drunken Atheists." It seemed like a good idea at the time, but lately I'm much more interested in just connecting with other local atheist. If you …

We are a collection of atheists in the Buffalo and Western New York area.  The group was started to promote positive atheism and to help bring atheists together in a friendly environment.  We also take a skeptical view on all pseudo-science and those who would dismiss critical thinking.  Join up, and get involved with like minded people right here in Buffalo and Western New York!

This is a community for atheists and agnostics in the Erie area. Come and hang out with fellow non-believers. We discuss religion, philosophy, science, family, life, relationships, ethics, the weather, etc...

Who can have fun like Salvation doesn't exist? Only atheist ladies! This is a social meetup for Freethinking (atheist, agnostic, secular humanist) women. We look forward to meeting you and enjoying rational girly-time! :) But seriously - sometimes it's hard enough to connect with other people, especially when you might be nervous about revealing your lack of belief.

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.

Looking to meet some new people who are freethinking and love to read? All from Mercer, Lawrence, or Crawford County areas are welcome. We will enjoy works by Dawkins, Harris, Hitchens, Dennett and many other fine secular writers and enjoy open discussion, good food and drinks, as well as making new friends. We will meet at restaurants throughout the area to ensure it is convenient for all members. Books will be approved by the members and we will aim to meet no less than once per month. Ideally …

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.

Since the beginning I've had a sense that there ought to be some discipline of cognition, some art of thinking, the studying of which would make its students visibly more competent, more formidable: the equivalent of Taking a Level in Awesome. - "A Sense That More Is Possible" Thinking and deciding are central to our daily lives. The Less Wrong community aims to gain expertise in how human brains think and decide, so that we can do it more successfully. We use insights from cognitive science, s …
