Humanist Connections explores human flourishing and the transcendent in the absence of the supernatural. Our discussion topics include issues relating to morality and ethics, human development, evolution, the nature of the universe, love, the capacities of the brain, free will, the latest scientific research and discoveries, and other topics of interest. We include humanists, agnostics, devout atheists, freethinkers, religious naturalists, interested theists, everyone. All are welcome. Wheelchair accessible. Topics and speakers are selected by vote of those present on the first Sunday of the month for the following month. Your ideas and participation are welcome.
Most weeks, a member of this group gives a short presentation (about ten minutes) on a pre-announced topic, launching a moderated discussion on the topic. Drop in or contact Harold Ogren for more information. Speakers and topics are listed in The Week Ahead at UUCB. Sometimes the meeting format includes a series of shorter discussions on topics suggested by attendees.
Humanist Connections meets every Sunday, usually 1-2:30 pm, though the start time may occasionally be changed due to conflicts with other activities. We generally meet in the Fireside Room or Safir Room, with additional participants on Zoom.
See the Beacon or The Week Ahead for the weekly topic and the name of the presenter.
