Humanists use reason, evidence and compassion to make sense of the world, rather than religion. Brighton Humanists hosts presentations and discussions, to which all are welcome. Details of our next meeting are given below.
The Nightingale Room, upstairs at
The Grand Central, 29-30 Surrey Street, Brighton BN1 3PA
Monday 20 April 2026 – Get it Off Your Chest!
Doors open at 7pm, talk starts at 7.30pm
Instead of a speaker, attendees (members and non-members) are free to talk about any topic that they feel needs an airing, no matter how controversial it may seem – a good time to “Get it Off Your Chest”!
The chats will be informal, will start at 7.30pm and the whole event should last for a couple of hours. As long as attendees remain polite and respectful, nothing need be off the agenda. Any aggression will not be tolerated.
Examples of topics might be:
“I am called a racist because I think immigration should be limited?”
“Is it selfish to continue to have children if you know you can’t afford to look after them, and will need to rely on benefits?”
“Should clothing including the burka be banned in UK?”
“A true Humanist should strive to be vegan.”
“The UK should follow countries like France and not teach RE in our schools, rather include some reference to religion can be made in other subjects such as history and geography, with no cherry picking of the syllabus.”
These are just some examples. You may well not agree – so come and have your say!
Do you have a topic that might be considered controversial but needs an airing?
Come along on 20 April and Get it Off Your Chest! We will hold it in the round if numbers allow
£5 payable on the door.
Feel free to bring a family member or friend. Non-members welcome!
Keep In Touch!
