Come join us for tea and discussion in Ballantine 134. 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 we will be discussing alternative medicine. I would like us to talk through such issues as whether or not things like homeopathy (which has been shown not to work) should be promoted or if the supporters of it are just trying to screw honest, albeit gullible, people out of their money.
