May 26, 2019 - "An Inconvenient Truth: It’s Not Just about Climate" - Vivian Viloria Fisher, Worship Leader

I’ve been exploring the various motives for rejecting truth. From self interest to loyalty. The truth can even be rejected for simple conformity. Jim Hightower said, “The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it is conformity.” Given that the search for truth is first on our list of principles, truth is a concept worth discussing.

Humanist Discussion Group Meeting - Tuesday, May 21, 7:00 p.m.

humanist greenThe Humanist Discussion Group meets next at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 21 in the Yellow room at the Fellowship. The topic is "What is the Alt-Right?"  The Alt Right (short for “alternative right”) is a loosely organized far right movement that emphasizes internet activism (especially memes) and is hostile to both multicultural liberalism and mainstream conservatism. Alt-right ideology combines white nationalism, misogyny, antisemitism, and authoritarianism in various forms and in political styles ranging from intellectual argument to violent invective.

White supremacism has been seeping into the GOP base through the conservative movement, the tea party, and the Evangelical community for many years now; with Trump at the helm, the ruling party’s link to far-right extremists has become quite apparent. Jonah Shepp

All are welcome.
