Practical Philosophy Meetup - Cologne
Details
Dear folks,
in our next meeting , let s discuss about 'LOGIC, INTUITION & INSPIRATION''
-What's your idea about Logic, it involves just thinking or something else?
- How would u define Intuition? Is it just fast pattern recognition or something more ?
- For you, does Intuition guide logic, or Logic should discipline Intuition? ; should we trust intuition, or always verify it with logic?
- What is an example from your life that you used Logic to solve a problem? And when u used Intuition to approach a challenging issue ?
- What happens if both conflict? Which kind of choices /dilemma in your life you had to face by choosing between Logic and Intuition to solve it ?
-Are sudden aha! ideas from Inspiration related or considered kind of intuition?
-Where do they come such ''illuminated ideas'' from? : would you think they could come from different sources ?
-If you look at such Inspirational ideas from different point of views, ex. the Science perspective vs. Philosophycal or Spiritual point of view ?
- which type of problems you find suitable to approach /solve with more logic, which ones with more intuition, or evtl. sort of external inspiration ?
see u soon ,
cheers
Guido

The goal of the Practical Philosophy Club is to create a community that is open to discussing ideas that can be used practically in everyday life. this group isn’t aligning necessarily with the specific scope that „philosophy“ and „practical philosophy“ may have in the academic world **We don't have topics that are off-limits and look to discuss all sides of a topic in order to:
- help you understand your point of view,
- Give you different perspectives, and
- realize that we all have some common ground and just because someone isn't on your "side" doesn't mean they are your enemy.**
We value communication, simplicity, balance, honesty, and discernment as values to live by, and look to build a community around these values. The typical meeting is about 10-15 minutes of banter to warm up before we move to introduce the weekly discussion topics. If the group is large we will split into separate groups so as to maintain a conversational tone within the discussions. With about 15 minutes left in the time, we bring all of the groups together and conclude.
