We covered a great deal of ground last term - mostly based on Liberty, Freedom of thought and expression. We looked at John Stuart Mill and related his attitude to happenings in the local and international field.
The core problem is the conflict between entrenched racial ideologies, including religion and the need for free expression.
We discussed the problem of Equality and looked at alternatives in the shape of EQUITABLE.
We shall start next time with a talk by John Davis on The Philosophy of Vegetarianism from his personal position as a Vegan.
Following that we shall look at testing one's own attitude to morality (BBC),review A C Grayling's book "Against all Gods" and consider the Philosophy of Sleep compared with Descartes Cogito ergo sum (do we think when we are asleep ?).
As well we might try to relate Body Modification (beautifying) and enhancement as in Sports and the use of aids to better performance.
