SUMMARY:Believe: Why Everyone Should Be Religious\, Chapter 3
DESCRIPTION:For many years\, Ross Douthat has written columns as both a committed Catholic and a conservative in the New York Times. He is an astute observer of culture who manages to write with great depth without being condescending or “hackish.” This book on the reasonablenes of religious belief comes at a time when there is a fresh interest in religious belief in parts of society that were\, up until recently\, dismissive of the role of religion in modern life. \nDouthat has a modest goal with this book. For readers who may have begun to question the relevance of religion to consider taking the first steps toward religious belief but not merely because religious belief is “psychologically helpful.” \nInstead\, he claims that unbelievers should consider religious belief because it has a real “intellectual advantage.” Religious belief\, in other words\, is the best explanation of reality. It is nonbelief\, not religious belief\, that requires us to deny what our reason tells us. \nJoin us as we continue our new book study\, reading and discussing chapter three. Valerie Mitchell will facilitate. \nAll are welcome.

SUMMARY:No Kings: Get Out the Vote
DESCRIPTION:Participants will gather with their signs at the sidewalk in front of Government Plaza and there will also be information tables in Mardi Gras Park. FIBI will have a donation table accepting shelf stable food items\, diapers\, and household supplies for local immigrant families that have someone in detention. \nNational 50501 (50 protests\, 50 states\, 1 movement) leaders organize these pro-democracy\, pro-freedom\, pro-compassion\, anti-cruelty nationwide demonstrations with our local Indivisible Mobile chapter. \nOpen Table supports an informed citizenry and encourages members to engage in activities that work to bring God’s dream to aliveness in our world: a world where all are treated with dignity and respect\, where the vulnerable are protected\, the hungry are fed\, the poor are not taken advantage of\, those in prison are visited\, and all who are suffering receive compassion and sustenance.

SUMMARY:Daylight Savings Time Ends
DESCRIPTION:Don’t forget to turn your clocks back for an extra hour of sleep! \nAs we shift back into standard time\, we are reminded of the thresholds in our own lives\, and what we can learn from the thresholds in the living world. The leaf that has spent the year growing will now burst into brilliant color before its release. The delicate balance between day and night moves\, and the northern hemisphere starts to settle into the shorter days and longer nights of autumn and winter.
