Drinking Skeptically Pittsburgh's 2nd Monthly Happy Hour this Friday!

December Drinking Skeptically!

What: Drinking Skeptically Pittsburgh - 9th Monthly Meeting
When: Friday Feb. 20th 7:30pm – 9pm
Where: The Claddagh Irish Pub, South Side Works



Drinking Skeptically is an informal social event designed to promote fellowship and networking among skeptics, critical-thinkers, and like-minded individuals.

Drinking Skeptically provides an opportunity for skeptics to talk, share ideas (and yes, drink) in a casual, relaxed atmosphere. We discuss the issues of the day and whatever else is on our minds. But most of all, we have fun while promoting skepticism, science, and rationality.

More information about Drinking Skeptically can be found here and on the Drinking Skeptically Pittsburgh Facebook group.

Drinking Skeptically – Anniversary Edition!

It’s our anniversary! Not just of Drinking Skeptically, but also of Steel City Skeptics! Come out and party with us at The Bar (2132 E. Carson) this Friday at 7:30pm! We’re going to try something wild and crazy this time. We’re not moving tables. When a table fills up, people will just have to split [...]

Presented without (much) comment

I am late to the party on this one (mistakingly thought it was next week). I’m just pasting in the only info I have from an email I was forwarded. All online info I’ve been able to find on this comes from ID websites and is the same cut n’ paste job. (No link love [...]

[anti-]abortion is homicide

For the past few days, I’ve been meaning to write down some thoughts on the murder of Dr. George Tiller, a late-term abortion doctor who was shot in his church last Sunday. The murder was, of course, reprehensible; but I’d like to take a brief look at how pro-life/anti-choice/anti-abortion groups have responded to the news. Abortion [...]

New Digs for Drinking Skeptically!

We are thrilled to announce a fabulous new change to our favorite monthly social gathering! We’re moving to The Bar at 2132. (That’s E. Carson St. — A Pittsburgh phrase meaning “where the bars live.”) The owner has not only graciously let us reserve the front section of this posh place on a Friday night, but [...]

Rob Sherman talk this Tuesday

This month’s Center for Inquiry discussion group offers a talk and Q&A with journalist and atheist activist, Rob Sherman. You remember Mr. Sherman — Illinois Representative Monique Davis interrupted him while he testified before the Springfield House State Government Administration Committee to spectacularly flip her shit: I don’t know what you have against God, but some of [...]

Thanks Laura! I made it. I shrunk it down so the thumbnail wouldn't be cropped in the group search listings, but that makes it pixel-y so I've gotta fix that. But I thought a little black n' gold would be appropriate! :D
