Humanist Society Scotland - Glasgow Branch Meeting
Title: "The Truth is Nowt There”
Speaker: Brian Eggo, Glasgow Skeptics
Refreshments: Complimentary tea and coffee will be available, with an optional donation.
Join us for our next Glasgow Branch meeting, open to all HSS members, supporters and anyone who shares humanist values! This month's meeting will feature a speaker from the Glasgow Skeptics group, as well as updates on the society’s recent activities.
Event Description:
UFOs or UAPs, are practically ubiquitous in popular culture, but is the Earth being regularly frequented by beings from other planets? With all the reported sightings and alleged abductions surely there must be something going on? Well, possibly, but are there other more terrestrial explanations to consider? Come join us as Brian Eggo from Glasgow Skeptics takes you on a light-hearted and near light-speed journey through some of the 'best' stories of sightings and abductions, while shamelessly using them as a vehicle to help promote critical thinking and scientific skepticism.
About the Speaker:
Brian Eggo is a human being from the planet Earth (allegedly). He has spent a significant proportion of the last ten solar circumnavigations running Glasgow Skeptics, an organisation committed to promoting science, reason and critical thinking. He has yet to meet any aliens, despite many close encounters of the absurd kind with true believers.
