Welcome to the Dunedin Skeptics in the Pub meetup group. This group is part of a larger, socially orientated group of skeptics. Details at http://skepticsinthepub.net.nz/
"A skeptic is one who prefers beliefs and conclusions that are reliable and valid to ones that are comforting or convenient, and therefore rigorously and openly applies the methods of science and reason to all empirical claims, especially their own. A skeptic provisionally proportions acceptance of any claim to valid logic and a fair and thorough assessment of available evidence, and studies the pitfalls of human reason and the mechanisms of deception so as to avoid being deceived by others or themselves. Skepticism values method over any particular conclusion." - Dr. Steven Novella of The New England Skeptics and The Skeptics Guide to the Universe podcast.
“ Join if you enjoy good conversation and a drink. Expect to be challanged. ”
“ At Skeptics in the Pub you can learn, challenge & be challenged, and have fun being able to speak your mind without being pre-judged! ”
You'll get invited to our Meetups as soon as they're scheduled!
"Phew! I can go to the lecture, then I had something on later, so this means I can go to both!"
