Humanist Perspectives – Types of Atheism and Atheist Myths – Nov. 16, 2019
This program is guaranteed to stir up controversy and is definitely open to interpretation. It will be mostly an open forum discussion. There is a book titled Seven Types of Atheism by John Gray, but the book is disputed and the arguments are flawed. According to the dictionary, there is only one definition of atheism, so who really knows how many types there are? The 7 types will be briefly laid out for discussion purposes along with other known types. Atheist myths will also be addressed. Then we will discuss our own interpretations.
What type of atheist are you and what does atheism mean to you? Is it a gateway to Humanism?
We meet in the Mills Building behind JUC. Park on the east side and take the walkway between the buildings to the side entrance.

Each session will be slightly different and include several segments to showcase aspects of Humanism through a presentation, videos, movies, forums and explorations, followed by discussions. We will include time for participants to socialize and get acquainted, in keeping with our chapter goal of building community.
