Secular Book Club
The Book club is a joint event with The Freethought Society of Greater Philadelphia. We discuss books relevant to values, issues, history, etc. These meetings are designed to build a stronger secular community, develop our thoughts more coherently, and embrace our history. Books are chosen by the group during meetings. After 9PM, discussion is continued at the Mandarin Garden.
