It can be pretty lonely for atheists, agnostics and other secular minded individuals and families living in the south, especially here in Alabama. Even though millions of Americans are non-religious, many are reluctant to reveal their atheistic or agnostic viewpoints because of the possible social stigma, discrimination, and persecution often directed at such individuals. If you are one of these millions of freethinkers and you happen to reside in Southeast Alabama or the surrounding Wiregrass area then you
SEAFA is a group of freethinkers who aspire to be a secular beacon in the Wiregrass, encouraging optimism rather than pessimism, hope rather than despair, learning in the place of dogma, truth instead of ignorance, joy rather than guilt or sin, tolerance in the place of fear, love instead of hatred, compassion over selfishness, beauty instead of ugliness, and reason rather than blind faith or irrationality.
SEAFA's purpose is to provide educational opportunities to residents of southeast Alabama, primarily regarding the Constitutional principle of Church/State Separation and the theory of evolution through natural selection. SEAFA will work to combat discrimination against atheists, agnostics, humanists and other freethinkers and in the process provide opportunities for socializing, networking, and friendship.
