Do you want to integrate your spirituality and your work? My goal for this NEW group is to provide a forum for people to discuss how to advance their spiritual practice as they succeed professionally -- whether at a company or at their own business. Many people today find that when they are on a spiritual path, it is difficult for them to talk about or practice their spirituality in the workplace. This can change! It is possible to create harmony between who you are (spiritual practice) and …

We are a smaller book club that meets monthly. We read fiction and non-fiction and have vegetarian-friendly dinners at meetings. Our members come from all walks of life. The things we have in common are that we like to read, have thoughtful discussions, and eat! It's OK to come to the meetings even if you didn't like the book or couldn't finish the book. Also, you don't have to be vegetarian to join, and this group is NOT designed as a forum for reading/discussing books about vegetarianism.

I started this meetup group to combine two things.. Dancing and as a social group for freethinkers.. This meetup piggybacks on a dance meetup, so most people there will be dancers. "Freethinker" is an umbrella term for atheists, agnostics, as well as the occasional Buddhist or deist, classical freethinker (like the American Founders), and many Unitarians. It is the fundies who should be singled out (not freethinkers), so I would rater have a freethinker meetup, rather than an atheist meetup.. B …

A word of caution to new members, I often have people join and I don't hear from them and they don't come out, and about anywhere from 1-3 months later they email me with horror stories. There are a lot of people in this group that have been through a lot, and what they have to offer could be very beneficial. We are not attorneys, and we do not give legal advice, but we are fathers and we speak from experience and from lessons learned (sometimes the hard way). Fathers, especially those that …
