Hey everyone! I started this group with the intention of getting a group of spiritually-minded people together in a similar age-group to discus all things spiritual, to help reset and recharge and to tackle A Course in Miracles together. I feel that with the help of each other, we can become better, happier, more positive and loving people and radiate our light to everyone around us. This group is for anyone in or around the 18-35 (-ish) age group who has a desire to explore different realms of …

For Brights, and those who are fans of Brights. Let's socialize and philosophize and politicize in order to bring realists like ourselves better political outcomes. There are only two reasons for "freethinkers" to meet. Maybe three. 1. I don't drink...(1a.) and have a significant other. 2. I don't have kids...enjoy whatever social ecology you need to raise them, and have fun. 3. We can ensure our views are represented politically, so as to assure our freedom of thought.   Let's MEETUP and figure …

This group is for skeptics of all types.  You might say a skeptic is one who is an evidential truth-seeker.  One who knows what his/her reality is by the evidence presented to them.  One who inquirers about everything, but accepts the most reasonable explanation based on science and falsifiable claims.  There is no topic a true skeptic will not approach, and the topic of religion is one of those. This group is NOT for those who say “I know for sure that I am right, that my religion is one true r …

We are a major organization for atheists in the Los Angeles metro area. Our monthly meetup is usually the 4rd Sunday at 11am. Our events vary from informative lectures to secular movies to playing fun games. Lunch is always served after the general meeting. Join our community of atheists to discuss beliefs and philosophies, deepen your freethought heritage and make new friends.

We decided to start the group because it’s hard to find people who are happy to share their intellect and perspectives on being atheist. This group is not just to talk about religions or our atheist/ agnostic views but to hang out and have fun with people who share similar interests. This group is not for judgmental people who want to criticize other religions, but for those who want to educate each other on strengthening atheist beliefs and or educating each other on different religions, and or …

Blessings! Just kidding... In a nutshell, I was raised in a fundamentalist pentacostal charismatic christian church and getting over that was pretty rough. I thought I was alone in my experience, but have come across a lot of people who have had similar challenges entering "the world" after leaving fear and guilt-based groups and worldview. The purpose of this group is two-fold: 1) Allow ex Christians to share openly and support each other through some of the challenges of leaving fun …

The purpose of Young. Gay. Spiritual. is to offer a casual atmosphere for young LGBTQI's to learn, explore, and discuss spirituality and what living a heart-centered life looks like.

We will be planning outings mostly geared towards events with a spiritual flavor that put a smile on your face and others, such as outdoor festivals, volunteer work to help others and our beautiful plane …

Johrei, to be described simply, is 'prayer' with 'meditation', which many say has powerful healing and stress relief benefits. Though prayer is involved, belief in a particular God or organised religion is not necessary. One night out of the month, Johrei Fellowship has a casual get together to introduce the Johrei philosophy of channeling positive energy, the virtues of nature farming, and art. There is never a cost for attending the meetup or for receiving Johrei. For more information pl …

PHILOSOPHY is the topic at this friendly, five-year old group. We sit in a circle and discuss a philosophical question we voted on by email. Sometimes this topic is taken from an issue of Philosophy Now magazine (the current issue or a past issue). Other times, the question comes from a philosophical conundrum that has been on the mind of some member of our group, who then emailed the topic to me. If you love a good, impassioned yet respectful and rational conversation with like-minded peo …
