We're having a Godless Perverts Social Club on Tuesday, April 4, at Wicked Grounds, 289 8th St. in San Francisco (near Civic Center BART), 7-9 pm. Our discussion topic for this evening: Interfaith and the Godless. The question of secular communities doing interfaith work can be a difficult one.

But what does purity even mean? Is it ever a useful concept? Is there a difference between purity and setting boundaries? Come to the Godless Perverts Social Club and discuss purity and impurity, in sex, religion,…
