MDC is the original WASH chapter with members or other interested people in the greater Washington area including Montgomery and Prince George’s counties in Maryland.
Our members cover the spectrum labeled freethinkers, skeptics, secular humanists, non-theists, atheists, agnostics and the recent Nones or “not sure”.
Like other WASH chapters we participate in a range of activities with other groups of like interests.
WASH MDC
The Meeting will be on Saturday, Oct. 13th from 1-3 in the DC Chevy Chase meeting room on the 2nd floor.
Research into the Psych-Social aspects of our difficult times
How our evolved social nature both benefits us, but also tends to polarize us into conformity with our “in group” with frequent hostility to “the other,” even when the other can be decent people too. “
