Welcome!
Welcome to the web home of Rocky Mountain Atheists. We are a group based in the City of Calgary that aims to be a safe and supportive secular community dedicated to serving society; to support those who have been marginalized or traumatized as a result of faith-based beliefs, and to provide and promote evidence-based learning opportunities.
We want to nurture secularism, skepticism and community, promoting Humanism as an alternative to religious and faith-based systems.
We hope you will join us and look forward to meeting you!
