Shoreline Skeptics and Freethinkers

We are a group of skeptics, atheists, agnostics and the nonreligious cognizant of the pitfalls of groupthink or any in-group/out-group labels and behaviors. As skeptics we attempt to prefers beliefs and conclusions that are reliable and valid to ones that are comforting or convenient, and therefore rigorously and openly apply the methods of science and reason to all empirical claims, especially their own.  A skeptic provisionally proportions acceptance of any claim to valid logic and a fair and thorough assessment of available evidence, and studies the pitfalls of human reason and the mechanisms of deception so as to avoid being deceived by others or themselves. Skepticism values method over any particular conclusion.

Join us for casual discussions and events with other like-minded people.  Our membership covers the Lake Michigan shoreline communities from Chicago to Milwaukee.  Our monthly gathering is usually held at the mid-point near Kenosha, Wisconsin.  However, we often will attend outside events of interest to our scope in the aforementioned area. 

All memberships will be reviewed at yearly intervals. If you have not attended any events in that period your membership may be terminated. However, you can rejoin at any point thereafter if you do find future attendance will be possible.
