Inverness & Black Isle

Philosophy

The PHILOSOPHY discussion group meets monthly, on Mondays, avoiding General Meetings. Normally six or seven meetings between September and the following April. We meet in the group leader's sun lounge

We work by discussion. We do not use set texts as a basis so reading is optional. Details of a topic, questions, book suggestions, dates, etc. are sent out in the late Spring and Summer.

Members are encouraged to communicate with each other in between whiles, with news of Radio and TV programmes; magazine articles; You Tube items etc. of interest.

The current topic is - BELIEF IN TODAY'S WORLD

In the past the group has looked at questions in the main branches of western Philosophy: Political; Knowledge and Belief; History; Aesthetics; Metaphysics; Ethics; Applied Ethics.

We have also considered over-arching topics: Persons; The Enlightenment; Big Questions; Existentialism; Cosmopolitanism; Utopianism.
