The FSI is a South African non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting free speech, free thought and scientific reasoning. We are non-theistic, committed to methodological naturalism, and  to minimising the harmful effects of religion and pseudoscience in South African and wider contexts. You can read more about our goals and philosophy on the “About” page.

If you’d like to support us in our work, please join the FSI and/or make a donation (see PayPal links below) either to the FSI or to Ideas for Africa, our initiative for distributing pro-science and secularism books to those who might not otherwise get to read them.

On this page, we highlight content that members and supporters of the FSI might find interesting. A feed for recent content from both SkepticInk and FreeThoughtBlogs is provided, and should not be read as endorsement of any viewpoints expressed by authors on either of those networks.

Lower down on the page, you’ll also find feeds for the most recent posts of the FSI Chair, Jacques Rousseau (who also writes for SkepticInk), and another founding member, Tauriq Moosa (who writes for BigThink).
