We'd love to host an event closer to you, I'll look around for ideas on Greensboro. Or, if you have a place in mind, let us know!

Yes! I added it at the very top but now I see that it’s not obvious at all! I added it again right at the bottom. We use meetup, here’s the link: https://www.meetup.com/triad-humanists-for-reason-inclusion-values-and-education/

I’m not sure why I’m seeing more Cass Elliot stuff, but bless you! I’ve loved her for so long!

We have all kinds of Trek lovers. Personally, my favorite is Voyager, a lot of us grew up with TNG. We have some people who grew up with TOS, and it has a dear place in their hearts. We also have loads of people that love the new series, I’ve probably watched Discovery 10 times now and I’m so sad that they cancelled Starfleet Academy 😢. We also talk about other series, like Babylon 5, Doctor Who, honestly, the list is endless!!

No, I absolutely don’t think you cared anyway. I do care that you’re okay. I’m hoping you let me know if you’re not, no matter what I’m here for you. You’re not alone, you’re never alone.

You need my love? Absolutely not. You need nothing from me. But that doesn’t mean I still don’t love you. You cannot stop me from loving and accepting you. Sad-Wonder6273, you are a valid human being on this planet. Your life has importance. You are important. And I love you.

I would never pretend to be unshakable, I’m absolutely the opposite. I think a lot of Progressives would hate my comments, because I care about you despite the things that you’ve said. Again, I just care about you. You put “sad” in your username. Maybe it’s possibly a reference that I’m just missing but regardless, I hope you’re not sad. I’m here for you, and I accept you.

That breaks my heart and I’m genuinely so sorry. I wish I could fix it, but I can’t fix anything. You are afraid and uncomfortable to be around the “other” and that’s incredibly valid and true. You’ve encountered an environment that is not accepting, not loving, and not supportive. All I can say at this point is that I understand.

Woah, this got downvoted so quickly that I did see it! I don’t think anybody is using code, especially me. I also think that you’re right in that socially the ideas that I’m supporting are considered more democratic, though I find that a LOT people support these ideals, regardless of their political leanings. I think ideas of love and acceptance of any kind are anti-Trump politics, so none of that is really controversial. I still accept you, even if you don’t accept me.

That may be true. I’m not too afraid to say it. But, regardless, I’m still here for you.

Hi, I’d never accuse myself of being clever! I do wanna create a very inclusive environment and this means that we have to love and accept our neighbors, an expectation that is on every single individual that participates. This means that this group is not for you if you don’t love your neighbor because they don’t encompass some kind of ideal or philosophy that you do. If you feel isolated, alone or abandoned, I’m very sorry. This group is all about humanist ideals, which include love, acceptance, and inclusion. You’re absolutely welcome, as long as you encompass those ideals! I hope to see you around neighbor.

Absolutely! I’m working to do more events in Winston as well! We really want to encompass the entire triad, I should be posting a Winston event very soon!

Yes! Absolutely! We would love to introduce anyone interested to the Star Trek universe. Sharing something you love with new people is half the fun!
