Why atheists gather

...in person or in cyberspace:
"Because we believe in ideas that transcend religion such as love, respect, science, reason, the separation of church and state and good will towards others." It’s Good to Have a Response When Someone Asks Why Atheists Gather
Nontheism can be lonely in places like middle Tennessee, but we're not alone. "Shall we gather at the river?" Or the pub, or a Sounds game, or...?

  1. There is a fairly active freethinker group in Murfreesboro, but being in Nashville has prevented me from making more than a very occasional appearance. Having said that, gathering at a pub is always a great idea.

  2. You're in Nashville, David? Me too. Bosco's, Blackstone's, Flying Saucer... other good venues for an impromptu meet-up here?

  3. Yep, just bought a new townhouse in the Donelson area.

    Any of the above would be great, and Deb would love to meet you. We should try to work something out sooner rather than later.

  5. As early as this Sunday afternoon would work for us. I believe the Saucer is non smoking now.

  8. Same for me. Tuesday 1 pm, on the patio at Blackstone's?

  9. I was just checking in and stumbled onto the A&P post-class meeting at Blackstone's. Keep me posted if it's still on for Tuesday.

  10. Well, Tuesday is a bust for me. Deb had an unexpected meeting scheduled at work, and won't be able to make Blackstone's on Tuesday. We are both still very interested in getting together, though.
