"No próximo dia 16 de Março, pelas 20:00, irá realizar-se mais um dos encontros Ateístas e Humanistas, que se costumam realizar mensalmente (terceiras quartas feiras de cada mês). Desta vez, o encontro é especial, pois iremos passar o documentário “The Nature of Existence“, e contaremos com a posterior presença do Director do mesmo Roger Nygard, via Skype.

O encontro é na Loja de História Natural, em Lisboa, sendo que se pede a todos os que queiram estar presentes para confirmar na página do Meetup dos Encontros Ateístas e Humanistas.

Including high-profile atheists such as Stanford physicist Leonard Susskind (co-discoverer of string theory), Harvard Psychologist Daniel Gilbert (author, Stumbling on Happiness), actor/monologist Julia Sweeney (Letting Go of God), film director Irvin Kershner (Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back), Ann Druyan (author and wife of the late Carl Sagan), evolutionary Biologist Richard Dawkins (The God Delusion), and many more…."
