Welcome!
September 12th 2007 12:13 pm
Welcome to the home of Manitoban Atheists, Skeptics, and Humanists, or MASH. We are a University of Manitoba student group who believes that we can live fulfilling, moral lives without the need for dogma or social crutches. We meet to discuss the important questions in life, enjoy the wealth of media humans have created, and learn from each other and from invited speakers. We may also have fun; our executive is discussing this possibility, so expect a decision in the near future.
We are only just starting out. It was kind of a spur-of-the-moment decision in September 2007, after noticing that the majority of student groups at the U of M are religious, fraternities/sororities, academic departments, or activist. We strive to provide a secular alternative to religioius groups, an inclusive alternative to fraternities/sororities, a diverse alternative to department based groups, and a more relaxed alternative to activist groups. Certainly, we will participate in events and causes that we feel are important, but members are free to simply enjoy a nice chat every now and then if they choose.
Please check out the rest of this site for a bit more information. There isn’t a whole lot to see at the moment, as we are still just starting out, but if you’re interested, please come and get involved! Post something to our forum, or drop us an email.
