French Philosophy Night

Due to this being the Kings Birthday Holidaqy night we are doing it a little different.

We wil ask for up to 4 or 5 topics from the floor. The attendees will vote on their favourite, That becomes the topic and the instigator is asked to speak on the topics for a few minutes. We then go around the room for discussion,
After the topic is exhausted we move on to the next most popular topic. I will be suggesting the "Social Contract."

On the second Monday of the month, Philo Agora has a speaker on a philosophical topic and a Q&A and discussion after. On the fourth Monday we meet again for open philosophical discussion.

Philo Agora's format is a talk for 20 minutes starting at 7:15 for 7:30. The presenter then answers any questions of clarification from the floor. We then take a break of 5 minutes for more coffee and to mull over the talk and discuss it within small groups. The microphone is then passed around the audience for comment, opinion, and often counter argument to a maximum of 3 minutes. The presenter is then given a 5 minute right of reply.

We usually finish up at 9pm. The cover charge is $5 for the talk. There are tea and coffee facilities available in-house.
