Philosophy Class in the area?

[TillieTrotter]

Does anyone know if there are any philosophy classes/groups running in or around the area as myself and a friend would like to indulge ourselves. Morley College is brilliant for this but a tad too far to go.

You could join me and Big Dave down the boozer for a few sherberts. We usually delve into a bit of existentialist angst at around pint 13, we delved into Jungs theory of the eternal self last time before ordering another Absinthe and a bowl of peanuts. The trick is remembering the order by which you put the world to rights in the morning. Tricky.

Sounds just my cup of tea Bon3yard, when's the next meeting to be held?

[bon3yard]

As soon as I recover from the last session. Big Daves checked into rehab so I'm missing a partner, are you sturdy enough for the rigours of this particular form of intellectual enquiry?

I have heard of a group based in Liverpool called Philosophy in Pubs. The idea sounded pretty interesting.

I?m not sure what level of knowledge you need. I imagine it?s based on Western analytical philosophy and you get an argument to test, apply your own thought to it and then you all get together, get drunk and have a big fight about it.

Kinda like a book club but interesting.

I?m not sure if they operate in London but then I?m not averse to steeling people?s ideas and passing them off as my own.

[TillieTrotter]

Sturdy! Me! you'd better get into training Bon3yard.:)-D

[Keef]

Indeed bon3yard, this girl has staying power!

[TillieTrotter]

Why thank you Keef, I'm glad you confirmed my status as a Lush;-)

[Keef]

No worries luv, takes one to know one and all that x

[SeanMacGabhann]

Ah but first we must consider what "class" means....

;-)

[bon3yard]

...it makes you wonder how much more inquisitive we might be had we not dissolved half our brain mass with bad beer and great drugs, still The Palace of Wisdom and all that. ;-)

What pub? Is it real?

When? What are time and space?

Do you even exist?

Does God exist?

Does beer exist?

What is good? What is evil?
