Is creativity born or learned? Is the subconscious more powerful than we think? What is the purpose of suffering? What makes a life meaningful? What role should religion play in public life? Would you upload your mind to a computer? These, and hundreds of other questions maybe pop up in your minds.. Let’s meet and talk about them, and hundreds of other questions, in the relaxed and frendly atmosphere of a pub with a few thinkers on a Sunday afternoon.. We have about 300 topics, written on cards. We look at the cards.. we pick one topic, we discuss it passing around a token, so that everybody has an equal chance to speak. Then, we read the next card, and so on. YOU CAN VIEW ALL THE TOPICS HERE Please donate... £2.00 would be great! They go towards paying for the Meetup fee.

What is the value of truth? What is reality? Is God real? What is the role of compassion in our lives today? What does it matter whether animals have a soul or not?
