Drinking Skeptically does not take "official" positions on political, religious, academic, or other matters.

This group was created because I feel that we need more open-ended discussion groups that allow us to develop community and meet other freethinkers whose thinking is focused on science, philosophy, art, politics, innovative social thinking, agnosticism, atheism, humanism, current events, culture, intellectualism and community development. This group does not espouse anti-religion or anti-cultural movements, nor support a particular political or social platform. All thinkers of all social, politi …

The world is awakening to the fact that free will is an illusion. Our group is about using this powerful truth to enhance our personal lives. If what we do is not really up to us, how does this change the way we see and react to each other and ourselves? If we can't logically blame or credit each other for anything, how do we evaluate and respond to what we do? If we're merely actors, and not the authors, of our acts, who are we really as human beings? These are just some of the questions we'll …

The great philosopher Socrates took Philosophy out of the realms of the elite-few and into the streets where, by promoting a method of inquiry among individuals, he challenged them to examine their own beliefs. Thus ensued an unraveling process for the individual, away from the world of appearances, towards Truth. Inspired by Socrates and in celebration of World Philosophy Day, a bunch of us Lovers of Wisdom created Philo-café. We aspire to conduct a similar Socratic dialogue, to bring together …

As Woman, we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be perfect in every aspect of our life. We can be so hard on ourselves and we are our own worst critic; I'm guilty. Why? We should be kinder to ourselves. When others tell us we're beautiful or compliment us in any way, we should believe them. Give yourself a mental break and leave all of your worries at home. This is a date with yourself; YOU-time. This is the time you will spend in kindness. A time for an abundance of light hearted fun & inspi …
