Hey folks! It’s been a super super long time since we last posted, but we’re hoping to get the blog going on some sort of sporadic and/or semi-regular basis.
Seven of us are currently sitting in the campus center hanging out, being awesome, and theoretically writing blog posts in a three hour blogathon! We’re going to start updating on a regular basis, with a few posts from a few of the members who have joined – Katrina, Keith, and Leah – as well as a couple of other long-time folks! Hopefully their posts will be up soon as the first posts of a regular pattern, but before then , here’s a quick update on what we are going to be up to this week!
This Thursday at 9:00 p.m. (later than usual because of Tufts’ Thursday-as-a-Monday schedule) in Eaton 202, we are returning to a discussion topic on a theme that got many of us interested in freethinking and Freethought to begin with: religion. Specifically, our discussion is going to be about Pascal’s Wager and other arguments that often lead people to religion. It’s the first time in a while that we’re going to do a topic on religion, and while this week is going to be a broader topic about what drives people in society in general to be religious, next week is going to be a lot more personal: we are going to be doing a meeting to talk about our personal stories, but with a twist from how we usually do it. Keep your ears peeled for more news soon!
Friday at 7:00 we will (finally!) be watching District 9 in Pearson 106. Come for free food, an interesting movie, and a great discussion afterwards. Immediately after, we are heading over to Granoff 271 for a multihour jam session! Bring your instruments and board games and come hang out for a great time! Both are open to all even if you don’t normally attend our discussion meetings and we would love to have you!
Hope to see you all soon!
Can’t wait to see the new posts!
