We are a ratified student club at the University of Windsor in Ontario, Canada. Please join if you are an atheist, freethinker, secularist, nonbeliever, rationalist, skeptic, antitheist, or humanist who enjoys philosophical discussions.
Our group is affiliated with the Centre for Inquiry (CFI) and the Secular Student Alliance.
We hold monthly meetings, attend conferences, and keep active in our community and on campus.
The purpose of our group is to raise awareness in the community about secular issues, educate ourselves and the community about theism and nontheism, engage in philosophical discussions, create a network for nonbelievers, and foster communication with groups of both similar and dissimilar views.
