🎉 Now in our 26th year! 🎉
The First Coast Freethought Society is an organization of individuals who prefer science and reason over religious dogma and fanaticism. We have enjoyed the nonreligious population of Northeast Florida since 1998 as we seek ways to improve the quality of life within our communities.
Our advocacy prefers progressive ideas over regressive ideas with an emphasis on equality, equity, and critical thinking, through education and community outreach.
We provide a place to discuss philosophy, science, books, movies, current events, and a venue for local and national speakers to share their expertise. We offer support to those who question or have rejected religious beliefs.
Our public activities are free! Check out our YouTube Channel, monthly meetings, newsletter, book and move discussion groups, and our monthly Secular Sunday in the park. We hope you can join us!
Monday evening, October 21, 6:30pm (ET), we are pleased to invite you to our Zoom Room for our film screening of the Rob Reiner documentary about the rise of Christian Nationalism, God & Country. A robust discussion will follow our screening. More info and RSVP at our Meet-up page here: https://meetu.ps/e/Nvm4d/1WNf1/i
