Kicking off the Fall – Recent Activities
September has been a good month so far. The last day of astronomical summer 2026 in the Northern Hemisphere is Monday, September 21, 2026, as the season officially ends with the autumn equinox on Tuesday, September 22.
The fall is my favorite time of the year and we have a lot coming up. Before we discuss what is coming up let us discuss some recent activities. I recently celebrated my 46th birthday and we have already tabled at the Bentonville Farmers Market.
Our next event is a Secular Sunday meeting – I hope you will come out and join us for this business and social meeting on Sunday in Springdale.
September 20th (Sunday) – 10:00am to 11:00am

Farmer Market – Story Time – On Secular Morality
On Saturday September 12th (yesterday when I am writing this) we had a very good time at the Bentonville Framers Market. It was mostly a slower day with friends just chilling and chatting at the booth. A few sign ups, waves, and hellos from the farmer market crowd. As well a some delightful “USA!, USA!, USA!” chants by the kiddos. But at one point we had 2 young gentlemen engage us in some civil discourse. They wanted to “talk” about morality. They felt strongly that morality had to come from “god” or religion. We clearly disagreed.
In the end I did recommended if they were sincerely curious they can do some research online. I pointed them to the American Humanist as well as suggested a simple google search about molality without religion. So in the spirt of their curiosity I thought I might share a few this here for those who might also be interested in digging deeper and learning more on their own.
Secular Morality Frameworks
Humanism: Secular humanism teaches that humans can be ethical through reason and empathy without needing a divine command.
Evolutionary Roots: Cooperation and fairness developed in social mammals long before organized religion existed to help groups survive.
Philosophical Systems: Thinkers use logic, such as reducing harm or applying the golden rule, to build fair societies.
For those who wish to watch a few videos – here they are.
Let me speak of the important of voting. FFRF is non partisan organization which means we will not tell you how to vote. But no one can deny the importance of getting out and voting. Let your voice be heard through your vote and your daily actions. Vote like your rights depend on it!
Please check your Arkansas registration here, and if you are not actively registered please do so before Oct 05th the deadline in Arkanasas. I am sure there is a similar link for OK and Missouri, so if in doubt verify you can vote in the mid-term elections.
Local Candidates/Forums
I know it can be hard to find out about candidates and forums so locally here are a few sources you can use to find out more and educate yourself.
National Level
Our friend Hemant Mehta (The Friendly Atheist) made a recent post about non-religious candidates – With the help of the Center for Freethought Equality PAC (the political action arm of the American Humanist Association), I’ve compiled a list of all the openly non-religious candidates running for office at the state and federal level.
This year, there are more “Nones” on the ballot than ever before: Nearly 200 candidates. They use a variety of labels to describe themselves, but they are all people who don’t subscribe to organized religion.

American Atheist – send letter to Texas
In a recent email from Nick Fish – President of American Atheist he sent this:
In case you missed it, American Atheists made headlines this week for doing what we’ve done best for more than 60 years: standing up for the constitutional rights of nonreligious Americans.
Following reports that Texas Comptroller-elect Don Huffines planned to fire state employees he deemed not “sufficiently Christian,” our Legal Team fired back.
[American Atheists] We put Huffines on notice, issuing a scathing letter that made clear: If he follows through on his threat to impose an illegal religious test, we stand ready to defend the workers whose rights he violates.

This weekend our chapter welcomed in Sam Grover to the area. Sam and his family got to Arkansas about a week ago and got to explore our beautiful area on their own. On Friday evening (07/17) a hand full of our most active members were invited to do a meet and greet with Sam Grover. We started at Crystal Bridges and then went to dinner to eat as a group in Bentonville. Chris and I like to introduce visiting Speakers to the museum when they come into town if time allows. Our local chapter has made a bit of a tradition of taking a group picture by We the People Art piece, when we can do so.
You might notice some of these familiar faces below from our activities at farmers markets, pride, and our monthly meetings. Join us as a more active chapter member for potential future invite for these sorts of opportunities.
This inaugural kick off to our 2026 Summer Speaker series was a real treat. On Saturday Sam Grover (and 3 of the plaintiffs – in the Stinson v. Fayetteville) were present and spoke at Bentonville Public Library. We had a bit over 20 people in attendance of this inaugural event. Sam Grover talked about the history of how courts have changed over the years – on how they are interpreting religious issues – locally and nationally. The plaintiffs spoke to what motivated them to stand up and speak out in this battle. This really shows how one person can make a big impact at a local level. Only school districts that had parents willing to stand up were enjoined in this lawsuit – against Act 573. The talk wrapped up with a Q&A. Pictured below is Chris Sweeny (Chapter President), Sam Grover, and Dr. Steven Caldwell who spoke out on this subject often.
