London Philosophy Cafe: Is Objective Morality Possible?
Join us for a thought-provoking exploration of one of philosophy’s most enduring questions:
**Does objective or universal morality exist?**
This event invites participants to delve into the heart of moral philosophy, examining whether moral truths are absolute and universally applicable, or if they are shaped by culture, context, or individual perspective.
Through lively discussion and critical inquiry, we’ll challenge assumptions, confront classic and contemporary arguments, and consider the implications of moral objectivity (or its absence) for how we live and interact in an increasingly interconnected world.
We have reserved the Chicester Room in ther pub for us . Please ask for Philosophy cafe at the door and they will direct you .
We like to break into small groups and have a healthy discussion about life , philosophy and ideas .
We break out into groups of 6 to discuss three questions over 45min to 1 hour; and then spend another 45min feeding back into the main group. The three topics are chosen on the day by vote, and largely derived from suggestions on the day.
We welcome new ideas , so please come up with suggestions or topics that you want to talk about .
There is no specific topic list and you do not need to read or know anything particular about philosophy .
The official time is 7-9: 30 pm , but we usually go into a pub mode after 9:30 pm and continue our discusssions.

Worum es geht:
Der ehemalige Führer Adolf Hitler erwacht Jahrzehnte nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges in Berlin-Mitte. Er ist verwirrt und versucht zu verstehen, was passiert ist. Die Welt, wie er sie vorfindet, ist geprägt von Frieden, Fernsehen und sozialen Medien. Hitler möchte sein Ziel, die Weltherrschaft an sich zu reißen, weiterverfolgen, doch die Menschen, die er trifft, halten ihn für einen witzigen Imitator. Er begegnet einem Fernsehproduzenten und wird schnell zu einem TV-Star..
