CFI-LONG ISLAND Joins Reasonable New York
March 5th, 2011 - For Immediate Release
Reasonable New York, the two-year-old confederation of ten New York-area freethought groups, announced today that Center for Inquiry-Long Island has joined RNY.
Reasonable New York is a consortium of local reason-based organizations and people working together to increase awareness of secular-minded movements throughout New York City. We aim to inform New Yorkers that there is a community of people who share a rational basis for their worldviews, who attend intellectual public lectures, enjoy philosophy discussions, and socialize. We invite you to visit our various member groups, to contact any of those in which you are interested, and check out our calendar to attend gatherings of any of our organizations, many of which are free. Some of these events are also posted on our shared meetup site.
