We welcome all labels of free-thought – Atheists, Agnostics, Humanists, Skeptics, Brights, etc. – who share the common goal of teaching our children to embrace the scientific world view as a way of understanding the universe. Parenting without religious dogma is an ongoing challenge. How do we prepare our children to cope with religiously-based social conventions that surround us, from …

Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance. This group consists of like minded people meeting to learn and cross-train each other in disaster preparedness, emergency / wilderness survival, bug-out or shelter in place, civil unrest, EMP / power grid failure, nuclear disaster, economic collapse of government, etc, etc. Our rule of thumb is that it takes a community to be resilient, and individuals within this group should attend with the mindset of bringing their skills and experience back to their …

Let's meet and talk about topics from philosophy to misosophy, politics to economics, religion to atheism. Let's pick questions and dwell on them together over a cup of tea, a glass of wine or a beer. Everybody is welcome to join and discuss in an environment of tolerance where other members will support your viewpoints or politely challenge them. Or if you just want to listen to some funny, outrageous or brilliant ideas, then come aboard.

This meet-up will explore the ''Why'', the ''What'', the ''Where'', the ''Who'', and the ''How the Heck do we Get Out of this Mess''.

If that …

Are people naturally good, or inherently bad? How does evolution impact the the existence of God? And, perhaps most importantly, is there such a thing as self-evident truth? Join us as we put small talk on the back burner and tackle some of Christianity's biggest questions. We'll be going through a six week DVD study called the Truth Project. The study answers these questions from the viewpoint of biblical Christianity - but don't let that dissuade you from joining us! If these are questions tha …

Humanity On Call is an outreach effort sponsored by the Humanist Fellowship of San Diego (www.hfsd.info ) dedicated to helping our fellow San Diegans and caring for the environment. If you are a nontheist, this can be your connection to a non-religious community outreach organization and your opportunity to work alongside others who share your outlook on life. Some of our projects will have you working for or alongside faith-based organizations since they constitute (for now) the majority of vol …
