It's becoming increasingly clear that technology is reshaping our world in incredibly profound ways. Let's get together to discuss, think, argue and explore what this change means for our most deeply felt beliefs.

I've got some authors I'd like to explore (Ray Kurzweil, Thomas Carlson, John Modern among others) and movies I want …

PHILOSOPHY is the topic at this friendly, five-year old group. We sit in a circle and discuss a philosophical question we voted on by email. Sometimes this topic is taken from an issue of Philosophy Now magazine (the current issue or a past issue). Other times, the question comes from a philosophical conundrum that has been on the mind of some member of our group, who then emailed the topic to me. If you love a good, impassioned yet respectful and rational conversation with like-minded people …

Reasonable Faith Los Angeles Area Chapter We are a group of Christian believers who study and discuss apologetics, as well as philosophical and theological issues. Our springboard is the scholarly work of William Lane Craig and his book "Reasonable Faith".

God commands us to love Him with all our minds (which means reason), all our hearts (which means love), and all of our strength, and all of our soul (which …

There is a growing number of skeptic groups which call themselves 'evidencialists' — those who place their confidence (belief) in only those claims with sufficient evidence.  This is one of those groups.
