How would the philosophers of old see our news of today? This will be your task this evening. Looking at contemporary issues what could the Ancients have taught us? Death, war, conquest and famine...the four horsemen of the Apocalypse remain with us after millenia. Our cheery topic will be led by Peter.
You are welcome to join in our discussion or just listen. If you want to Present a topic just have a chat with Peter next time.
We need to pay for the room, photocopying etc., so please make a donation of £3 if you are unwaged, £4 if you are waged. Looking forwards to seeing you upstairs at the Lloyds 7.30pm Tuesday evening .
Our rules
Whenever we engage in an intellectual discussion, our goal ought to be to converge on the truth.
We can all promote reason by changing the mores of intellectual discussion, so people treat their beliefs as hypotheses to be tested rather than slogans to be defended. Whilst you may disagree with some ideas, we are here to have a civilised debate.
To summarise, listen and be kind to each other.
