Every Wednesday, the Secular Community Network of CFIC Ottawa hosts lightly moderated informal virtual discussions on topics of interest to freethinkers, humanists, and to others who are secular.
Feel free to bring suggestions for topics – the group will vote on which topics will be discussed.
Religion/Philosophy/Science/Atheism/Humanism
- How do you define Humanism? Do you consider yourself to be a Humanist?
- How do you define “secular”? Given your definition, what percentage of the Canadian population do you estimate as “secular”?
- How does one become a Freethinker? Through genetics, physiology, experience? What distinguishes Freethinkers from conformists or indoctrinees?
Science: Physical & Social
- How much science is behind what is sold in health food stores?
- What are the most important social impacts of the “anti-vaccination” movement?
Current Events:
- the state of governments in Canada, the US, and the rest of the world

Non-Religious Lifestyles
- If you have no religion, from where do you get moral guidance, social values, and a sense of belonging to a community that would help you in problems of living?
Participants are also free to suggest their own discussion topics.
