Welcome to Our Website
The Center for Inquiry Tampa Bay offers an opportunity to put your principles into practice by joining other reasoning people in working for positive change in society. In addition, our Tampa Bay Center sponsors social events for freethinkers, provides intellectual programming, and assists with campus outreach.
CFI provides an ethical alternative to religious and paranormal worldviews. In this time of rising religiosity, anti-intellectualism and political turmoil on ethical issues, it is critical that rationalists and freethinkers join together to protect civil liberties, defend reason, and work toward increasing scientific literacy.
