As most free thinkers know, we are a minority. It can be sobering having this "informed" world view. Join us for open discussions about our place in the universe and how we might change our world.

Albert Einstein once explained that he had knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate... manifestations of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty - it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute the truly religious attitude; in this sense, and this alone, he considered himself a deeply religious man.

Deists (and some Agnostics) believe that observation and reason suggest the existence of a higher power, but stop short of proclaiming that we know who or what is responsible for the wonders of the universe. We don't yet know, and may never know.

We embrace scientific exploration and discovery, and understand that we are products of evolution - whether it be planned or accidental.

We welcome people of all faiths and non-faiths to join us for conversation and philosophic exploration.

      “Looking for new friends? -maybe? Anyway, I value new ideas and discussion. Intellectualism should be embraced, so that society's decisions aren't made from false intuitions. And 'those' are the people who think they can move mountains...”
