To all locals, expats, and visitors in Tallinn, welcome! My wife and I are delighted to invite you to study the Word of God with us every Friday at 6:30 p.m. in a casual setting, accompanied by coffee and tea. We believe the Bible is entirely true, and we strive to live by its teachings. We also believe that the love of God is so powerful that it can touch hearts and heal what's broken in all of us. Let's study Christianity together to help you find answers to questions like: \*What is the meaning of life? * How do I deal with difficult situations * Who is God, and what is the Trinity? * How can Jesus Christ help me? * How can I forgive and treat others with love? Please join us or reach out if you have any questions! The meetups are in English.

Free yearly Beltane celebration for pagan, spiritual and just curious women looking to connect with spiritual practitioners, mindful friends or meet local witches. May 1 We're celebrating Beltane at my oven's co-founder's Alice's farm, and it's a national holiday! We will meet at Vabaduse Bus stop and go together by bus. Buses go back every hour. Read all details below. Beltane is the mid-point between Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice, a fire festival celebrating fertility, sex, love, marriage and childbirth, and the life-force energy of nature in full bloom. No 0rgy this year (joke) but we will be talking a lot about the stages of womanhood. Its counterpart is Halloween. While Halloween / Samhain the veil is thin, especially for world of the dead on underworld, Beltane is also a thin veil but for souls looking to be born, heaven, muses looking to inspire etc. It's death vs birth. ○ MENU (everyone brings something to our community table, this is how we keep the event free): 🍯 Honey-themed goodies: honey cake, honey cookies, sweets in general (anything golden and sweet) 🔥 Fire foods for grilling: mushrooms, corn, bell peppers, asparagus, zucchini, easy grill sausages and meat—basically anything that loves fire! 🥬 LOTS of fresh dark green leaves: salads, herbs, greens of all kinds (we are embracing our inner cows lol) 🌶️ Spicy things: spicy jerky, chips, wings, spicy salads Important ‼️ who’s confident on grill duty and can tell when things are actually cooked through ? If nobody is confident, bring easy to cook things like sausages or grilling cheese. Weather looks like it might be anything live 7–14°C, so dress in layers and stay comfy as the day shifts. ○ MAIN ACTIVITY: 🔥 Circle around the fire. We will share and discuss what to us does it mean to be a woman, our thoughts about kids and marriage, our reservations on insights about sex, our experience of love and motherhood, what it's like being 10, 20, 30, 40 years old etc. and how we feel about aging, and other tips and wisdoms. 🥁 Optional: drums and instruments 🎶 I’m suggesting a relaxed improv rhythm circle around the fire, just repetition and flow to drop into a meditative group state… 🎀 Dance around a may pole ! If Alice the owner of the farm is unable to provide a may pole, we can instead run around a tree and wrap it with ribbons. ⚠️ Please bring looooong ribbons (like 10-20 meters is good depending on pole/tree thickness) or several colourful ribbons to tie together. Ribbons can be whatever you can find ;) ○ Summary: 🗓 1 May 📌 Meet at Vabaduse Väljak bus stop (Old town side) 🚌 bus 129, to Orava bus stop, 2 Euros 🕚 be there by 10:20, bus leaves at 10:40 and buses to there leave rarely 🎁 bring something from the food list above, and long ribbons 🏠 bus that goes back comes often, every hour so ✍️ HOW TO REGISTER Timetable might change so I will update if bus time is different 2 days in advance.

It feels like we just saw each other 🤷. Join members of the local design and UX community for our monthly breakfast. For May we’re stopping in for Rooh’s popup breakfast/cafe concept. You know someone is getting the lobster yuzu croissant, and that’s not even the prettiest thing on the menu!.

When judging morality, should we prioritize **intentions/duty** or **outcomes/results**? It introduces two influential philosophers as representatives of these approaches. * **Immanuel Kant (deontology):** An action is moral when it is done from **duty** and follows rational, universal principles (the **categorical imperative**). Certain acts—like lying—are wrong regardless of the consequences; you can’t do a wrong thing for a right reason. * **John Stuart Mill (utilitarian consequentialism):** The morality of an action is determined by its **effects**, specifically how much **happiness/well-being** it produces. Mill argues that some pleasures are “higher” than others, and that good intentions don’t redeem harmful outcomes. ## Discussion Questions 1. **The lying dilemma:** A murderer comes to your door and asks if your friend is hiding inside. Kant would say you must not lie. 2. **Can good intentions rescue a bad outcome?** 3. **The organ harvest problem:** A surgeon has five patients dying of organ failure and one healthy patient in for a checkup. Killing the one to harvest organs would save five lives, and the math works out for the utilitarian. Why does this feel so deeply wrong? Is that feeling a point in Kant's favor, or just a bias we should overcome? 4. **Do rules need exceptions?** Kant insists moral rules must be universal, with no exceptions. But most of us can imagine extreme scenarios where any rule seems like it should bend. Does the need for exceptions fatally undermine deontology, or is the strength of the system precisely that it refuses to bend? 5. **Who gets to calculate the consequences?** Utilitarianism asks us to maximize good outcomes, but we're notoriously bad at predicting consequences. If we can't reliably know the results of our actions, is it practical to base our entire moral system on outcomes? Does this uncertainty push us back toward rules and principles? 6. **Everyday morality:** Think about a real moral decision you've made recently, even a small one. Did you reason more like a Kantian (what's the right thing to do in principle?) or more like a utilitarian (what will produce the best result?)? Do most people naturally lean one way? 7. **Justice vs. the greater good:** A town can prevent a deadly plague by sacrificing one innocent person. The greater good is clearly served. But is it just? Can an action be morally right and deeply unjust at the same time? 8. **The big synthesis question:** Are these two systems actually opposed, or do they often arrive at the same answers by different paths? Is it possible that we need both: rules to guide us in the moment and consequences to evaluate systems and policies over time?
