What is the Center for Inquiry?

Did you know that there are at least a million skeptics, humanists, and other rationalists in the Greater Los Angeles area? At least a million people who believe in using science, reason, and human understanding to make sense of the world? At least a million people who do not accept paranormal claims or supernatural belief systems? These million people have only one full-time community center specifically dedicated to their needs and interests. They have only one professionally staffed center defending their rights and promoting their beliefs. And that center is the Center for Inquiry-West.
