Humanist & Agnostic Discussion Group
Thursday, August 18 1:30pm
The word “atheist” has negative connotations – being against something. But many “atheists” are not against the idea of God, but rather FOR a reasoned and logical search for spiritual meaning in life. They want to start at the beginning, with no preconceptions about religion or deities, and ask what if anything makes spiritual sense. We seek people who want to ask the difficult questions about religion and spirituality. In order to feel comfortable in this group one needs to agree to two premises. First, the world is as we detect it through our senses. Second, truth emerges through the use of the scientific method. We take hard data and massage it through reasoned logic to approach the truth, which we will never really know for sure. Come discuss your ideas of religion and spirituality. Bring your questions and be prepared to change your mind. Please call COA at 526-6368 to sign up.
Movie & Pizza Night
Friday, August 19 5:00pm
“Joy”
“Joy” is the wild story of a family across four generations centered on the girl who becomes the woman who founds a business dynasty and becomes a matriarch in her own right. Betrayal, treachery, the loss of innocence and the scars of love, pave the road in this intense emotional and human comedy about becoming a true boss of family and enterprise facing a world of unforgiving commerce.
Please call COA at 526-6368 to register.
