Come join us for tea and discussion in the Dogwood room in the IMU this week. Russell’s Tea Parties are SAIU’s periodic general-purpose casual meetups, named after Bertrand Russell’s ‘teapot’ thought experiment, his argument that the burden of proof in supernatural claims lies with the person making the claim.

Come, drink tea, tell us about your religious and non-religious experiences, start a friendly debate, discuss current events, find other members with common interests, start a group project, or even go totally off-topic for a while.

This week’s topic is the exploring the difference between atheism and agnosticism. We’ll be talking about things like whether being completely atheist (meaning 100% certainty that no God exists) is really a logical conclusion that can be made. People tend to have rather strong feelings about things like this so it will be interesting to see what happens. Hope to see you there!
