Mar. 7th, 2013 - Scientology & Me / Secrets of Scientology

Join Humanists Doing Good as we watch two documentaries about Scientology. British reporter John Sweeney visited the United States to investigate whether the Church of Scientology was becoming more mainstream. The programme gained particular controversy before and during filming due to unresolved differences on content and approach between Sweeney's production team and Scientology members. Tommy Davis, the international spokesperson for Scientology, did not want detractors or perceived enemies of the church to be interviewed or included in the documentary and wanted to censor any references to Scientology as a "cult".

The first video is titled Scientology and Me and the second video is titled The Secrets of Scientology and continues Sweeney's investigation, but this time with the help of a former rival and church insider. Both videos are full of jaw-dropping moments. Remaining time will be used for discussion.

As always, food and drink will be available for purchase from Wraps on Main. Call 970-623-2598 for more information.

When: Thursday evening, March 7th at 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Where: Wraps on Main (150 West Main Street, GJ)

Feb. 22nd, 2013 - India Night

Join Humanists Doing Good for an evening of excellent Indian cuisine and an opportunity to learn more about another culture. Here is how it works... We've put together a menu of items that you can choose from. Select an item or two from the menu and we'll send you recipes to make it. We'll need your email address to send you the recipes. You prepare the items in advance and then bring them on the night of the event. We'll end up with an excellent meal that everyone has helped prepare and we'll all learn in the process. You are free to bring a favorite dish that is not on the menu, but please let us know if you plan to do this. We hope to do a little decorating and to have either some videos or music available as well. If you have any experience in India or have any knowledge about India, we'd be happy to have you share what you know with the group.

When: Feb. 22nd at 7:00 pm

Where: Wraps on Main (150 W. Main Street, GJ)
