Owensboro Freethinkers -- Welcome!

Greetings!  We are the Owensboro Freethinkers and welcome to our blog.  We are your friendly neighborhood atheists, agnostics, humanists, skeptics, critics, and all-around pro-free speech and free thought folks who have decided to form together a group based on our values.  As self-identifying freethinkers, we stand behind freedom of speech, freedom of thought, critical thinking, the scientific method, healthy skepticism and open discussion/debate.  To invest our group into the community, we've created an Owensboro Freethinkers blog -- a forum for us to express our views, touch on whatever topics tickle our fancy, and, most importantly, a place for dialogue.  We have several different writers who will take the reigns on different issues, but you will mostly find articles placed here written by our group members, discussing our interests both in and out of the community, concrete and abstract.

We will cover current events in Owensboro, Kentucky, and abroad; we may write about religion, politics, science, and social issues.  We believe in the free discussion of ideas and, as our group affirms, any idea is fair game for critical analysis.  You will probably read articles written by folks upon topics reaching conclusions you may or may not agree with, to which we welcome you to leave us your reaction.  We encourage and promote debate, skepticism, criticism, and general discussion.  This blog is our public forum. 

If you're interested in joining the group, please check out our Facebook page (Owensboro Freethinkers).  Enjoy!
