Philosophy Workshop

[alfihar]

Ive been toying with the idea of running some kind of philosophy workshop over new years and Im wondering who would be interested and also any suggestions for discussion or areas you would like to explore. I was thinking of perhaps a hour or a hour and a half so we can cover something with some detail, but not too many topics

I've got a good intro to metaethics made for middle years; It can usually run to an hour, but I've made it go 40 minutes, I'm sure it could go quicker too. It outlines deontology, virtue ethics and consequentialism. I consider pretty fundamental understand the whys, whats and hows of ethics before handling the ethical questions, which I have quite a few of as well.

Actually, on thinking, I lost HEAPS of stuff in a recent hard drive crash (I had WAY too much stuff I hadn't backed up and didn't realise), but I'm pretty sure I've got a folder of hard copies, or I can just rewrite it.

It sounds good to me, whatever you decide. I am hesitant to commit to anything firmly as I don't know what I'll feel like doing but... sounds good!

I'd be up for this and chris would be too I'll bet.

I'd be interested, although many of the nights that everyone else is free I'm working or training. Nevertheless -- please keep me posted. If it's a regular date / night then I'll try to reschedule things so I can make it.
