Group Discussion (Host: Ann)

Details

Come discuss deep topics in the company of warm, insightful people. Many of us are regulars, but newcomers are wanted and welcome.

We'll meet at The Commons. (Laguna St. entrance - a descending black staircase to the left of Earthbody.)

We'll vote on which 2 topics we would like to talk about, then have a moderated discussion ensuring everyone has the option to participate.

Recent discussions have covered questions like:

  • Is it better to live a well-rounded life that is ultimately mediocre and unsurprising or to maximize on one dimension or pursuit?

  • Disasters like the LA fire are being blamed on climate change. But if you actually look, even with this global warming trend, we're talking 1 degree warmer on average, maybe just a tad bit drier on average. All this seems insufficient to explain the magnitude of the calamities befalling us. Is "climate change" a convenient excuse for political and administrative failure?

  • Can giving up dating be a valid option? How can it be made healthy, and what role can community support play in this decision?

Please submit your topic suggestions before the event using this form:

Looking forward to seeing you there!
