Resumo da Reunião 7 fevereiro 2013

• Video project: O que fazem os professores
• We will have the first version of the video by February 17th.
• Web:
• By next meeting, we will finalize our personal descriptions of one paragraph and publish them on the blog.
• Book reading (Greta Christina - Why are you atheists so angry):
• We studied the Resources given by the author. Here is a list of our comments, relating the links to our intentions:
• http://www.the-brights.net/  Has a lot of sources but not many activities. Has a very well organized database of books, blogs etc.
• http://www.venganza.org/  A lot of pamphlets, stickers etc. Good activism material.
• http://centerforinquiry.net/ Has lots of videos, articles that we could translate and use as an outreach opportunity.
• http://www.ftsociety.org/ A more humanist group rather than an atheist one. Nice activism and networking, sometimes press releases etc. They host meet-ups in Lisbon too.
• http://richarddawkinsfoundation.org/  Two words: Richard Dawkins.
• http://secularstudents.org/ Purely American network of secularist student organizations. But they have a "group starting package" that might be useful.
• http://www.atheismresource.com/ Lots of information such as videos, articles, short essays, book reviews etc. But doesn't have activism material.
• http://godisimaginary.com/ Arguments that they have could be used in flyers or posters as they are short and clear.
• http://wiki.ironchariots.org/index.php?title=Main_Page Good source for arguments and counter-arguments. But only that.
• http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyatheist/ Greta says he is the Atheist Times where we can get recent atheist news.
• We also noticed that she mentions a survey she has done in her blog about which ideas convinced former believers to become atheists. (Chapter 12) We decided to take a closer look at these reasons, pick our favorite ones, and discuss action possibilities in the next meeting.
• We decided to attend the meet-up announced by Free Thought Society, the Encontros Ateistas e Humanistas de Lisboa, on February 20th, Wednesday, at 20h00.
• There will be a workshop on communication with new media, in the following days. We will try to attend it.
• Exchange Market (Mercado de Trocas)
• Assembleia Popular de Graça e arredores is organizing an exchange market on February 16th, Saturday, between 11h00-16h00.
• We decided to join the market and share books and videos in electronic format.
• We will make a list of material we have and come up with a visual presentation to be used in our stand.
• March 2nd, Que Se Lixe A Troika
• We decided to join the demonstration and distribute flyers. Here are some ideas for the flyers. We will study each item and see if we can develop a flyer content from them:
• Austerity (why austerity is not a solution)
• Housing (the buildings that belong to the church or church related charity organizations, which are left abandoned while people need housing)
• Religious institutions (How do religious schools and hospitals function? How do they get subsidized?)
• Privileges of religious organizations (are priests subject to civil labor law? etc. Check: www.concordatwatch.eu )
• Open discussion: We had an open discussion in the end of our meeting, related to
• what we expect to achieve,
• how to organize.
• We aimed at not making any decisions but rather understanding each others' positions and expectations.

Resumo da Reunião 31 janeiro 2013

• Logo: We had the first version as a witch character and we agreed it to be the initial version. We had some concerns about the details. We will elaborate more and get several varieties to discuss in the future meetings.
• Movie screening evaluation:
• We had no logistical problems, and a good debate after the screening.
• Overall, we all think we had a successful event. To improve ourselves, we decided to
• strengthen our communication in the organization process,
• visualize the event concretely in the preparations to avoid misunderstandings on expectations.
• Web:
• On Facebook, we will close the profile and function only through the group and the page.
• We put a separate section where all our meeting minutes are available.
• We are still working on our personal paragraphs for the upcoming section "Who are we?"
• Book reading (Greta Christina - Why Are You Atheists So Angry):
• We will share the links in the Facebook group and search through them to see what could be useful for us.
• March 2nd, Que Se Lixe A Troika
• We talked about how to participate in the demonstration and considered the option of distributing flyers.
• We will come up with more concrete ideas for next week and discuss.
• Video project: O que fazem os professores
• We participated the Teachers' Demonstration (Manifestação Nacional dos Professores) on January 26th.
• We translated Taylor Mali's poem What Teachers Make, and let people read it to the camera. We will soon have a video of it.

Resumo da Reunião 17 janeiro 2013

Vimos o documentário Os Inimigos da Razão e depois fizemos um debate, em que participaram cerca de 15 pessoas.

Resumo da Reunião 10 janeiro 2013

Discutimos o conteúdo do cartaz para a projeção do documentário e a sua paginação.

Documentário e debate

Somos constantemente bombardeados por falsas informações, desde manchetes sensacionalistas até alegações de charlatões e descabidas políticas públicas. 

Como distinguir entre verdade e falsidade? O que é e o que não é racional? Quem são os inimigos da razão e como identificá-los?

As Bruxas Não-Inflamáveis convidam a todos para a exibição do documentário 

“Inimigos da Razão” de Richard Dawkins

seguido por debate com 

André Luzardo

 matemático pela University of Edinburgh e doutorando em neurociência pelo Champalimaud Neuroscience Programme

Data e local: 17 de Janeiro @19h00 no MOB, Travessa da Queimada 33, Lisboa
