IDEAS BETWEEN FRIENDS

(2nd Sunday - 1:00 pm)

Our feature event being roughly a 30+ minute presentation (humanist topics mostly) on reasoning, (non)theistic thought or plain old motivation & life hacks. Just listen or throw in some casual comments & questions. Followed by a bunch of friends having coffee & snacks while discussing world domination. A pretty relaxed crowd to hang with.

CONVERSATIONS OVER COFFEE OR BEER

(3rd Tues - 1:00 pm or 7:00 pm)

Discussions over coffee or beer. Alternately held at Weeds Coffee Shop or Kilkenny Pub. These are most often generated from a review of a favorite book someone has once enjoyed. So if you find any interesting ones, bring them & they may find a way into the conversation. Or maybe a dusty treasure will even find a new home for a while so others can enjoy or be motivated.

PHILOSOPHY IN 20

(4th Sunday - 11:00 am)

(On-line only) Listen to some short sound bytes of some very interesting topics & viewpoints of life, then followed by an interactive easy-going guided dialog from your favorite philosophy guru, Dr. Dave. No pressure to participate.

VENTURE DAY

(a lazy afternoon or evening)

Hanging out — chomping on dogs & burgers, some frisbee or maybe even a bit of music. Perhaps a walk, hike or some cycling. Let's get OUTSIDE! Think fresh air!!

What is Calgary Secular Assembly?

CSA is not remotely a "church" of which the "Assembly" word implies to some people.  We talk, we discuss, we try to interactively help to educate & share ideas — mostly per humanism. Maybe we need a better name??
