Please join us Sunday, February 12, 2012 @ 1PM CST as we welcome Alix Jules and Benjamin Burchall to discuss humanist & freethought fellowships. We will also discuss a myriad of other topics pertaining to living a dogma and doctrine free life.
Alix Jules is a secular activist in the Dallas Ft.Worth area commonly involved in issues and topics regarding the role of diversity in the Atheist community as well as Atheism in Diverse communities. He chairs the Dallas Fort Worth Coalition of Reason’s Diversity Council and is a founding member and presiding Historian for the Fellowship of Freethought, a family based organization founded on the values of secular humanism and charitable principles. Alix has been featured in Ebony magazine, African American for Humanism Campaign, One Man’s Journey into Atheism, Godless – the documentary, and is a regular contributor to Texas Reason Blog – the Secular response to Texas Faith.
Alix’s popular topics include:
Good for Goodness Sake: How to Out-Christian, the Christians, a look at how secular values can be even more fulfilling than dogmatic obedience
Get off the Bus: Civil disobedience tactics as a tool for discrimination, Ft.Worth Atheist bus ads stir Black ministers to threaten boycott.
Not My Child: Secular Children in America
Benjamin Burchall was raised as a Baptist until he was 12 when he became Seventh-Day Adventist. Ben has been a Christian minister and later a New Thought minister. Since fully embracing reason as the proper foundation of belief, he founded Long Beach Freethought Society and co-founded Black Nonbelievers, Inc. (formerly known as Black Nonbelievers of Atlanta) with Mandisa Thomas. Ben is the founding chaplain of the Atlanta Fellowship of Humanity (also known as Humanist Congregation of Greater Atlanta.)”

The mission of Atlanta Fellowship of Humanity is to conduct humanist gatherings, to advance humanism in the world, and to engage in humanitarian efforts. We seek to spread the light of reason, the warmth of compassion and the glow of hope.
The fellowship upholds the ideal that beliefs should be based on objective evidence. Therefore, we do not endorse belief in the supernatural. We define spirituality as that which is helpful in developing character and lifting the human spirit toward the highest expression of humanity we can imagine.
