free-think-er n.
A person who forms opinions about religion on the basis of
reason, independently of tradition, authority, or established
belief. Freethinkers include atheists, agnostics and
rationalists.
No one can be a freethinker who demands conformity to a bible,
creed or messiah. To the freethinker, revelation and faith are
invalid and orthodoxy is no guarantee of truth.
Freethinkers of Ventura County has two specific purposes: the promotion of the constitutional principle of separation of state and church and the education of the public on matters related to non-theistic belief. The organization is both educational and social.
On Monday, February 15, the Ventura County Grand Jury will give a presentation which will explore the purpose, operation and history of the grand jury. Questions and discussion to follow. For further information, call Charlotte at (805)443-8753.
