A Forum for Discussion

Socrates Cafe is a forum for discussion, where we get together and discuss important issues of significant moral and ethical impact. Participating in a Socrates Cafe enables you to explore and discover through question and conversation, with everyone encouraged to express their opinion and everyone learning from each other. 

At the beginning of each meeting, attendees suggest topics and group selects one for discussion. Past discussions have included: Can prisons deter crime? What is reality? Can racism be eradicated? Do we need laws? Do we have free will?

We are meeting in person. No registration necessary
