[ENGLISH] SATURDAY / CAFE de l'Òpera - Philosophy Meetup: 17h - 18:30
Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup!
Do you have a hunger for a deeper understanding of yourself and the world around you? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue?
If yes, then you will enjoy this event.
We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts.
The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives.
Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others.
A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning.
WHAT TOPICS ARE DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP?
Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view.
Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups:
* What ideals are worth dying for?
* Why are we never satisfied?
* Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is?
* Is identity necessary?
* How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others)
* What is friendship?
EVERYONE AND ANYONE IS WELCOME
The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world. To learn more, visit https://socratescafe.com.

La realidad no es solo lo que sucede, sino cómo la interpretamos a través de nuestros pensamientos, creencias y emociones. Al cambiar nuestra perspectiva y lenguaje, alteramos nuestra experiencia del mundo. Vemos lo que enfocamos, creando una "hipótesis" personal que podemos modificar.
Estas, otras cuestiones y opiniones estarán sobre la mesa en este, nuestro primer encuentro
en formato de Café Filosofico,
donde a modo de mesa redonda compartiremos nuestras inquietudes y puntos de vista para enriquecernos con el intercambio mutuo.
Animate a participar activamente, o simplemente como oyente, en este encuentro de charla y debate compartido.
Colaboración: 5 euros en efectivo. No Bizum (costes sala y org.)
