A periodical about reason, freethinking, philosophy, and antitheism.

The Free Idea is a publication based on the philosophy of open thinking. Reason and higher thought are all too often forgotten in our media and therefore lost in the catacombs of our culture. The Free Idea is here to bring freethinking to the masses in an openly acceptable and understandable periodical. 

The true mission of The Free Idea is to provide thoughtful insight and entertaining ideas about culture, philosophy, and reason. A thoughtful publication with an accessible perspective. 

Each issue of The Free Idea will feature columns from various academic and amateur freethinkers in the Midwest region, including but not limited to: UW Professors, Freethink Organization Representatives, and Academic Scenesters. 

The Free Idea is a grassroots organization looking to spread the word about thinking independently and open reasoning. This gives the publication a very close connection to its audience with dedicated interest from around the community. Distribution is, and will remain, completely free to the subscribers with dropping points located around Madison, Wisconsin including the public library system, university and commercial bookstores, academic buildings, and various other businesses. As the circulation and advertising base for The Free Idea grows the distribution radius will grow.
