What we’re about
Welcome to Unthinkable!
The goal of this meetup group is to focus more on in-depth discussions and thought-provoking philosophical arguments. Nothing is sacred but at the same time respect is an essential factor.
We cannot discuss a topic in-depth without having enough knowledge first, so in events of this meetup group, we will focus on a chapter or two of a book that we read beforehand and then we discuss what we learned and our thoughts over a cup coffee, what can be better than that?! In a world that everything should be fast and easy, we will go against this flow, slowly, with deliberation and that's what counts!
An unexamined life is not worth living.

About Edmund Burke:
Edmund Burke is considered the intellectual founder of modern conservatism. He argued that society should evolve gradually, respecting tradition, religion, and established institutions rather than pursuing radical change. In his critique of the French Revolution, he warned that rejecting history and inherited wisdom in favor of abstract ideals could lead to chaos and tyranny.
