Ponderer's Cafe Our intentions & guidelines: It is our intention to engage in easygoing conversation with guided questioning that allows us to cultivate and share perspectives with each other. It is our intention to truly LISTEN to and UNDERSTAND what each person is sharing.  We can ask each other questions for clarification and sometimes respectfully disagree, but it is against the spirit of our group to be condescending, judgmental or argumentative.  We are here to challenge ourselves, not ea …

I don't have all the answers, in fact, it seems the more I learn the less I know. The purpose of this group is to get together and simply talk through things.  No, we won't get it all figured out, but isn't the mystery of life truly one of its joys? Much of the focus will be on spiritual issues, but feel free to propose any question you would like to discuss. I want you to feel welcome, no matter your background.  Those who have shared our Table include Agnostics, Atheists, Buddhists, Christians …

In cities across the United States, many of the local gr …

This group is inclusive of anyone who shares the beliefs of Humanism or Freethought.  Freethought is a philosophical viewpoint that holds that opinions should be formed on the basis of science, logic, and reason, and should not be influenced by authority, tradition, or any dogma.  Humanism believes in the prmacy of human, rather than divine or supernatual matters. We hold a variety of meetups including coffee-shop social chats, book studies, lectures, movie viewing, invited speakers, bar hopping …

(Please note: most information about the group, including the names of our members and the locations of some meetups, is kept private from non-members. Unfortunately, we live in a society where there are potentially negative consequences for being public about one's atheism.)

The Bible is a single-volume collection of several historical texts that were composed over a period of many hundreds of years. The collection as a whole (or certain subsets thereof) is considered by Jews and Christians to be sacred, thus making it difficult to have a discussion of the Bible with many who are already familiar with it. This group is for those who wish to take an unbiased, secular approach to these texts. In a traditional Bible study, the purpose is to discover God's word through …

In applying Humanistic values to daily living we can advance healthy and natura …

We are a niche group indeed. Right leaning (OBJECTIVIST?) atheist/deist/non-theists? Who knew? Membership and meet-up info is confidential--no photos are required. We will meet in the Clemson/Central/Easley area for coffee or happy hours in neutral settings, nothing formal until we knit together. This is NOT a home for militant, never-had-faith Liberal atheists! There are plenty of great groups for those types--and I belong to a few and I love my atheist friends deeply. BUT>>> this is a safe, co …

Oneness, a spiritual organization founded by Sri Amma Bhagavan, seeks to alleviate human suffering at its roots by awakening humanity into oneness, wherein every individual feels connected to all that is. The central understanding of Oneness is that inner transformation and awakening into higher states of consciousness is not an outcome of a mere intellectual understanding but a neurobiological process in the brain, whereby one’s experience of life is redefined at its core. This is achieved by O …
