This meetup is for people in the DC metro area who are on a journey to a state of higher consciousness and a state of oneness. We are dedicated to awakening humankind into a state of Oneness. To awaken is to be free; to be free of the mind from its interference with our experience of life; to be free of the illusion that there is a self and that this self is separate from others. To awaken is to know what we truly are:" the unborn, the undying, the eternal, the ever present, the ever present pre …

The need for critical thinking skills and a humanistic outlook in our world is great. This is no less true in the Black community than in others. Many African Americans have been engulfed by religious irrationality, conned by self-serving "faith healers", and swayed by dogmatic revisionist historians. Many others, however, have escaped the oppression of such delusions, and live happy and upstanding lives free of superstition. African Americans for Humanism DC (AAH DC) exists to bring these secul …

Like that old, soulful U2 rock anthem, do you sometimes find yourself singing "I still haven't found what I'm looking for," and somehow the song's sentiment connects with your spiritual journey?  Perhaps you feel emotionally distant from the Christian spirituality and Sunday worship you grew up with.  Curious to find out why you’re having these feelings/thoughts/disconnect?  But more importantly, curious if there is a better way to think about, experiment with, and practice faith in the 21st Cen …

This group is to provide atheists in DC with an opportunity to get to know each other. We don't necessarily have to talk about our deep philosophical thoughts on life (although we can if we want). It is simply a chill way to meet folks with a similar interest and have some organized fun in DC.

The concept behind this Meetup is not a new one; artists have always collaborated with one another to stoke their creative fires by reacting artistically to each others work. In this case, the idea is for each artist to bring a sketchbook, begin a drawing, then have that sketchbook rotated through everyone else at the table, allowing the other artists to add to, and finish the drawing. You don't have to be a good artist to participate; the end result will be interesting no matter what, and even …

This is a group for all free thinkers in Howard County (and nearby areas) who would like to get together to discuss various social and political issues which impact free people, free markets, and free society.

When opinions or positions differ among participants, we'll strive for a respectful and articulate dialectic to achieve common ground.

I wanted to start a group for moms and expecting moms on base. Moving every few years can be hard and with most of us being away from our families we don't have the support system that we need. I thought this would be a good way for us to create a support group with each other and make new friends and for our children to be able to make new friends as transitioning to a new place can be difficult. Please feel free to host an event or add a meetup to the calendar. It would be nice if we had at le …
