What we’re about

We are a group of individuals who meet monthly to discuss readings about ongoing developments in science and technology, pernicious pseudoscience problems, and their implications for society.
We are based on the original Lunar Society of Birmingham UK, which met from the mid 1760s to the mid-1800s. They chose the name because they had to meet on the full moon in order to see their ways home afterward. :) We will maintain the monthly full moon tradition as our tribute to them.
From Joseph Priestley, one of the founders: "We had nothing to do with the religious or political principles of each other, we were united by a common love of Science, which we thought sufficient to bring together persons of all distinctions, Christians, Jews, Mahometans, and Heathens, Monarchist and Republicans.”
