This months Drinking Skeptically will take place at Meadow Muffins. We had plenty of room last time, and it was quiet enough to be able to chat. The manager said the back bar area (on the left) will be open to us. Swing on by and join us for a fun time. Drinking Skeptically is an informal social event designed to promote fellowship and networking among skeptics, critical-thinkers, and like-minded individuals. Drinking Skeptically provides an opportunity for skeptics to talk, share ideas (and yes, drink) in a casual, relaxed atmosphere. We discuss the issues of the day and whatever else is on our minds. But most of all, we have fun while promoting skepticism, science, and rationality. Everyone is welcome even if you do not drink. Location: Meadow Muffins Time: 7 PM | ||

Weather permitting, there will be a hike on Sunday, May 17th. The hike will be a portion of the Monument Creek headwaters area. If you go to google earth and home in on 39° 4'35.33"N and 104°59'17.35"W you are right at the junction of Balanced rock road (reached via Rampart range Rd up from Woodland Park) and a spur that leads down into one of the headwaters tributaries. The plan is to walk along the pretty valley to the large rock formation about 2 miles to the NE and then return to our cars by a slightly different route, using the google earth image to navigate. | ||

Freethinkers of Colorado Springs Membership Meeting 7:00 to 9:00 PM 315 East Costilla in Colorado Springs Join us in watching Part 1 of the television documentary, "The Enemies of Reason: Slaves to Superstition," written and presented by Richard Dawkins. The documentary was broadcast on Channel 4 in the UK in 2007. "Prof Richard Dawkins tackles the epidemic of irrational, superstitious thinking which is blotting the light of logic and evidence. After garnering tips on psychics' entirely earthly trade secrets from the illusionist Derren Brown, Dawkins attends a seance and confronts the medium. Time and again, the interviewees appeal to personal revelation or second-hand anecdote to justify their belief." [Channel 4] This is a great documentary that every freethinker should watch and have in their library. The complete DVD series is available for sale at RichardDawkins.net. | ||
