About Portland CoR

The Portland Coalition of Reason is a diverse collection of groups in and around Portland, Oregon that are especially welcoming to members whose life stance is not based on a belief in supernatural beings or events.  A primary goal of the coalition is to help the Portland community to become aware of our groups, and to help those in the Portland community without religious beliefs to find the group or groups that most fit their lifestyles and objectives.  Not all of the groups are exclusively non-theist, but unlike so much of the rest of society, they are comfortable with people expressing skepticism, atheism, humanism, freethought, or other similar views, and exploring issues of the day based on reason and critical thought rather than religious dogma.
