**Ahoy there,** The next Full Moon Picnic will be Mon June 29 from 9 - 11 PM on Pont des Arts. Moonrise will be about 10:35 PM and sunset about 9:45 PM. However jet-lagged arriving that morning from the US, I promise I’ll be on the bridge in the evening. June was known to American Indians for the Full Strawberry Moon because this is the time to pick strawberries. (I pick mine in the market.) In Europe it was known for the Rose Moon. **WHAT**: Everyone brings food and drinks to share. **WHERE**: Pont des Arts. We'll gather around the 2nd bench from the Right Bank side of the bridge. Nearest metros: Pont Neuf and Louvre-Rivoli. **WHEN**: Monday June 29 at 9 PM **WHY**: Share one of the most memorable sights in Paris with some of the nicest people around. **WHO**: You and your friends. **HOW** to find us: Keep your eyes out for a small telescope on tripod if the sky is clear and a group of "lunatics" gathered around the 2nd bench from the Right Bank laughing and speaking English and French. **THEME**: Reflect on your pool, whether in the colors of your World Cup team or in the puke green peeling American flag blue pool in D.C. **BIRTHDAYS**: Are you a Cancer? If so, bring a cake so we can celebrate your birthday this month and blow out the world’s largest birthday candle. **PUZZLER:** Think big. If you wanted to be the first person to ever accomplish something, what would you do? Think BIGGER! You want to accomplish something that has never ever happened before in the entire history of the universe. You want to achieve a unique claim to fame. Also think smaller. You’re lazy, you want to invest as little time and effort as possible. Hint? Take a deck of cards and a few seconds. **PUZZLER ANSWER:** OK there are probably billions times billions of possible answers. Here’s one. If you shuffle a deck of cards properly one time, you would almost certainly end up of a sequence of cards that has never been seen before in the history of the universe. Yes, ok playing cards haven’t been around that long. And ancient Egyptians couldn’t shuffle stone tablets properly. So let’s lose the constraints. Let’s say that every human being that ever lived shuffled a deck of cards once a second for the 13.8 billion years since the Big Bang. It's virtually 100% certain that not one of those 409,000,000,000,000,000 shuffles would result in a sequence of cards that match your single shuffle. That’s because the number of combinations of 52 cards is 52 x 51 x 50 x 49… ie. 52! (52 factoria) or about 80,600,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. While 4.09x1017 is huge, it's impossibly minuscule compared to 8.06x1067. And that’s why you should never gamble blackjack in Vegas! For more explanation and ironic amusement, check the link below. Maybe the Space Daily Editorial Team has dyslexia or can’t see straight or can’t count. The article says the answer is 8 followed by 67 zeroes, but unless I can’t see straight or count myself, their text shows 8 followed by 76 zeros. I know I’m being picky, but the difference is a factor of 1 billion. (Which is also on the order of the number of dollars per day wasted on the “excursion" in Iran by the US, okay yes by mr trump (his capitals are losing popularity by the day).

Bonjour à tous.tes ! Je m'appelle Emma, je suis l'organisatrice Practical Philosophy Paris :) Practical Philosophy est un mouvement né au Mexique et qui est présent partout dans le monde aujourd'hui. J'ai découvert Practical Philosophy au Canada et j'ai tellement aimé que j'ai décidé de l'importer à Paris (il y a aussi une branche à Lyon si vous n'êtes pas de la région). **🏛️ C’EST QUOI, LA PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ?** Practical philosophy, c’est un rendez-vous hebdomadaire où des esprits curieux se retrouvent pour creuser un sujet, affûter leur façon de s’exprimer et tisser des liens. Pas besoin d’être un pro de la philo pour participer, tout le monde est le bienvenu ! 😎 L’idée, c’est que la philosophie, ce n’est pas juste pour les profs d’université. Chaque semaine, on choisit un thème et on en discute pour aiguiser notre esprit critique et nos talents de communicants. C'est aussi une manière d'apprendre à mieux se connaître soi-même, en affirmant et argmumentant ce qu'on pense réellement. Bref, on bosse sur trois piliers : **Pensée Critique**, **Communication** et **Communauté** 🙌. **📓 COMMENT ÇA MARCHE ?** Chaque semaine, on se focalise sur un sujet qu’on décortique ensemble. Le thème est annoncé, souvent via le [groupe WhatsApp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/G3By4PVqhqdKuQbMTs1rwo)[ ](https://chat.whatsapp.com/G3By4PVqhqdKuQbMTs1rwo?mode=gi_t) quelques pistes pour lancer les échanges. Les thèmes sont très variés et toutes les suggestions sont prises en compte (la beauté, la richesse, la loyauté...) Quand on est plus de 7 ou 8, on se divise en petits groupes pour garder une ambiance fluide et éviter que ça ressemble à une conférence. **Déroulé type d’une soirée** Voici comment se passe une rencontre : ***19h00-19h15 **: On arrive, on papote, on fait connaissance dans une ambiance détendue. ** *19h15-19h25 **: Petit topo pour présenter Practical philosophie le sujet du jour, les règles et le timing. *** 19h25-20h45 **: On se répartit en petits groupes, on se présente, on partage nos premières idées sur le sujet, puis on passe à une discussion libre. Des questions “d’amorce” sont là pour guider si besoin, mais rien d’obligatoire. ** *21h00-21h30 **: Tout le monde se regroupe pour faire le point. Chaque groupe partage un résumé rapide (1 minute) de ses conclusions. On termine par un mot de l’organisateur et une photo de groupe. *** Après 21h00 **: La partie officielle est finie, mais c’est le moment parfait pour prolonger les discussions autour d’un verre ou d’un café, histoire de renforcer les liens. **🧧 COMBIEN ÇA COÛTE ?** C’est** GRATUIT **! Si on se retrouve dans un café, on vous demande juste de prendre une conso. **💛 CE QUE LES GENS EN PENSENT** 🗣 *“Le Club de Philosophie, c’est un endroit où on construit ses propres idées à travers différents points de vue, sans qu’on nous dise ce qui est bien ou mal.”* – Ekam 🗣 *“J’ai accroché dès le premier jour (le sujet était l’autorité) et j’ai tout de suite senti que c’était ma place. C’est un espace où on apprend, on découvre de nouvelles perspectives, on booste sa pensée critique et on crée du lien avec des gens qui challengent nos idées tout en encourageant l’ouverture d’esprit.”* – Daniel **🤓 FAQ** ** *Faut-il préparer ou lire quelque chose avant ?** Aucune préparation nécessaire ! On ne révise pas les grands philosophes, on veut savoir ce que** vous **pensez. Si vous avez une idée inspirée d’une religion ou d’une école de pensée, partagez-la, on en discutera.** *** Y a-t-il une philosophie spécifique au centre des discussions ? Non, pas de dogme ici ! On veut entendre toutes les idées, sans se limiter à une école particulière, pour muscler notre pensée critique. ** *C’est surtout des mecs qui viennent ?** Pas du tout ! Contrairement à l’image de la philo dans un salon sombre, nos rencontres sont équilibrées et sans ambiance lugubre ! *** Je peux venir seul(e) ?** Oui, on encourage même ça ! :) ** *Et si je suis en retard ?** On préférerait que vous soyez à l’heure ! On a 15 minutes de battement au début si besoin. *** Où se passent les rencontres ?** Le lieu est annoncé sur Meetup et dans notre [groupe Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/G3By4PVqhqdKuQbMTs1rwo) Envoyez moi un message pour rejoindre le groupe 😊 Pour découvrir les autres villes où le Club existe, checkez notre [site web](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/). **LE CLUB DE PHILOSOPHIE PRATIQUE – LA PHILO POUR TOUS ! ✨** On organise des rencontres hebdomadaires en présentiel dans plus de 25 pays, comme le Canada, l’Espagne, le Japon, le Mexique et bien d’autres ! 🗺️ **\*\*\*** **Rejoignez notre [groupe Whatsapp Paris](https://chat.whatsapp.com/G3By4PVqhqdKuQbMTs1rwo) 👈** **Suivez-nous sur [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/practicalphilosophyclub/) 👈** **Visitez notre [site web](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/) 👈** **✨ IF YOU ARE AN ENGLISH SPEAKER YOU ARE VERY WELCOME.

**Pourquoi “Le prétexte” ?** Parce que cette rencontre est justement cela : un prétexte simple et assumé pour réunir des personnes qui accordent une vraie importance à la liberté. Il n’y a pas de sujet imposé. Le point commun, ce n’est pas un thème précis : c’est une valeur. Le reste dépend des personnes présentes, des questions qu’elles apportent, des désaccords qu’elles assument, et des idées que la conversation fera naître. Le but est d’échanger, de rencontrer, de réfléchir, et **surtout de passer une bonne soirée**. Esprit de la soirée : \- discussion libre \- ambiance détendue \- désaccords permis \- bonne foi exigée \- respect indispensable Venez comme vous êtes : pour parler beaucoup, écouter, plaisanter, ou simplement pour passer un bon moment avec ceux que la liberté attire encore à Paris. **Le prétexte, c’est la rencontre.** **Le vrai sujet, c’est la liberté.** [Comment nous trouver : cherchez les affichettes "Meetup" sur les tables, ou demandez au staff.]

**Step into the laid-back charm of Cosy Cave Conversations**, a Parisian philosophy chat that's more relaxed than a cat in a sunbeam 🐈 🌞 Gather with a bunch of easygoing souls, share thoughts on the good life and its mysteries, enjoy a beverage, and have a good laugh. A few things to be aware of: * **Please** **don't show up without a spot** (we aim to keep it cosy and we always have a waiting list these days — check if you’re on the list or the waiting list) * If it's your first event, it's essential you **turn up early, or at the latest on time (<7pm)** so you understand how it works, what the topic is and don't interrupt the session * The **session runs from 7pm to 8:30pm** where we focus on the discussion, but don't worry, you'll have a chance to socialise, introduce yourselves and continue the chat after the session. **If you’re running late** (the curtains are closed), that’s okay, but please wait to join us in the break rather than interrupting the session. * Please read the **tips below** for a good session before coming along **How does it work?** We embrace the café-philo method — proposing intriguing topics on the night (up to 3), choosing one together, and diving into everything from consciousness, community, death and god, while managing to keep it light and easy 🦦 **Forget the stiff atmosphere**, we're all about small groups (\~10 people) and unpretentious chats with no homework required. No need for a philosophy degree, just bring your open mind and a dash of curiosity. **Join us every Wednesday 19h-20h30 at Les Acolytes** — because pondering the profound is better with good company (and a pint). See you there! 🎉 A few tips for a great session: * come with an **open and curious mind** 🧠 * **prioritise listening to others and asking questions** without interrupting or long monologues 👂 * we put a strong **emphasise on giving everyone a chance to contribute to the discussion**, so try and be aware of how much space and time you take up when speaking 🐻‍❄️ * we prioritise **intellectual accessibility**: this is not an academic group therefore we ask to keep any philosophy jargon to a minimum and instead explain any concepts in plain english 🤠 * we are an **apolitical group** that focuses on discussing and exploring philosophical ideas without endorsing or aligning with any specific political or religous ideologies. Our aim is to encourage open, unbiased dialogue centered on philosophical inquiry within a safe and respectful environment 🐥

This is our monthly Paris Café Philo, held in person and in English. The group has been meeting since 1997. On the first Wednesday of each month we meet at the famous **Café de Flore**, 172 Boulevard Saint-Germain, 75006 Paris – first floor. In addition, EVERY WEDNESDAY we have ONLINE meetings via ZOOM. Please check the relevant events listed on our Meetup group: [https://www.meetup.com/english-cafe-philo-in-paris/](https://www.meetup.com/english-cafe-philo-in-paris/) *** **What is a Café Philo?** Participants propose topics, we choose one together, and then discuss it in an open yet orderly way. But what counts as a topic? A topic can be a question about the meaning of life, our relationship to the world we live in, the difference between good and evil, how we distinguish truth from falsehood, reality from illusion, or beauty from its absence. There are many such deep questions that philosophers, scientists, and writers have grappled with throughout history. If you are interested in exploring these or other questions, we invite you to join our philosophical café – a gathering where you can express your ideas, share your knowledge, and perhaps discover something new. Our discussions are serious and rigorous, yet often enjoyable. No background in philosophy or the humanities is required. If you do have one, you are of course very welcome. *** **Format** A moderator guides the discussion, ensuring that every participant has the opportunity to contribute in a welcoming environment. No one is obliged to speak. Maximum number of participants: 30. This is **not** a lecture. It is an exchange of ideas in which your questions and perspectives are genuinely valued. The tone is respectful; views that are contemptuous of human dignity will not be entertained. *** **Who Can Attend** Everyone, regardless of background or level of philosophical knowledge – from seasoned philosophers to anyone simply curious about life's big questions. *** **Cost** Participation is free. Contributions are welcome. *** Welcome! *Michael M.*

This presentation will be by Ben Iten, humanist chaplain and HCCO Board Member. Speaking on expressing Humanism values in American democracy. This meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online. The formal presentation will start at noon. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event.
