Doubters’ Group of the
First Unitarian Society (FUS)

The FUS Doubters meet monthly to discuss science and religion issues from the perspectives of atheism, agnosticism, skepticism, and free-thought. Recent topics of interest have included the ongoing debates over evolution and intelligent design as well as the relationship between reason and spirituality. The Doubters occasionally host special events such as guest speakers and films. All (including curious and good-humored believers) are welcome!

Meetings: Every second Monday, 7-9 PM

The group invites participation from students, faculty, staff, and alumni of the University of Wisconsin (including curious and good-humored non-believers).

Meetings: Weekly Tuesday’s during the academic year, noon to 1:00 PM
